While I have, for the moment, some Internet access, here's an update to yesterday's goings-on:
Hard at Work

I doff my hat for a quick photo during yesterday's "verticalization" of the Proton-M launch vehicle carrying the Inmarsat-4F3 spacecraft.

The day started at 6:15 am with the start of the rollout, followed by a session at the pad for the verticalization, and included a few hours during the afternoon on the service tower (seen here over my right shoulder). In the evening, I went over to visit the guys from the video production company to review the video that will form the basis of some background bits to be broadcast during the webcast of the launch.

Today is L-3; pad day 2.

Cheers...
