So far so good on the seal. I cut what looks like a "button hook" shape out of a plastic oil bottle and ran it around the seal a few times. So far it has stopped weeping.

The plan is pretty simple. Meet up at washington Park on Weds. I will probably be there around 11:00 am to set up the shelter and such, then go get my bike and return. It will not be hard to find the group campsite with the Big NGW banner hanging on the tent shelter.... my number is Three sixx zero 421-4664
