First, a HUGE thank you to Gary and Joe for working with me on this project. This would not have happened as well as it did without their guidance. Thanks to you all as well for following this thread, your encouragement and thoughtful advise!
We arrived at the chilly fields around 11AM and immediately set off to assemble the rocket (after checking in with the TAPs of course). I had plenty of hands available to me so it went pretty smoothly. I followed my pre-flight check list to a T. Once on the rail, I couldn't find the screw switches on the sled due to (I now suspect) nerves. We lowered the rocket and they magically appeared. So we re-raised the rail and armed the electronics. Obligatory pre-flight pictures were taken, camera turned on and the rest can be seen below.
***Language Warning*** --- Sorry. Got caught up in the splendor.
