Laika recenlty spent a night at the vet after “exploratory surgery”. This is what it’s called when you take a dog in for spaying, she gets cut open, and it’s discovered that she’s already been spayed. Afterwards, she wouldn’t stop licking at her wound so she was given a baffle, just like Spider. (Theo has no wounds to lick, but she would also be unable to.)
Otherwise we juggled around pivot suspension ropes, and sun shields, and did more beam maps. Lots of non-dog things.

Who needs a cherry picker when you've got Sean and a ladder

Baffled

Not amused
It's not clear yet whether the problem is the cone or my camera

Need to remove the sun shields, they conflict with the non-shortened pivot ropes

Sean read in the data sheet that it's useful for lighting charcoal

Laika frolics in the garden
Not yet completely subject to the cone's sadness

Maybe a little sad

Success at making fire
With technology

Day two: had enough of this shit
On day three, she has been released from cone-prison, and is almost her old self again
