Great new hope this morning!
I received at 7:42am a manual Check/In message from the SPOT messenger sent with MSP-1.
The location reported is: 38.00134 , -120.80861. About 60 miles south east from our launch site.
The location really is in the middle of nowhere. It’s in the middle of an unworkable field 1.5 mile away from the nearest paved road. There is a dirt road about half a mile away. This area is protected all along by a fence and I have seen cows on Google street view archives which makes me think that it’s a private property used for livestock farming.
Fortunately there are only 3 farms around including one less than 2 miles away.
So my plan is:
- Go directly to this farm tomorrow morning.
- Ask if they found the payload
- If not, whose field it is and ask its owner
- If the owner has not found it, ask to check out the location
- If not found at the location, ask at 3rd Farm
- If the 3rd farm has not found it, post reward poster with contact information
I hope to have more news tomorrow evening.
Just admit you are going to break in.
Actually, I am just hoping to not have to walk 2 miles among moody cows for no reason. I think someone found it and he probably didn’t leave it rotting outside.
What we do in life, echoes in eternity. Strength and Honor.
