Sorry for the slow post ... it's been a fairly busy week. The weather was so nice last Monday that, after work, co-worker Steven and his wife Bethany joined me for a walk. Had they not come, I probably would have just walked a few laps around town, but we set out on the Hut Point Ridge Trail, probably about 5 miles total distance. By nice weather, I primarily mean that the wind had been low, but the temperature was probably at least 15 degrees and had been as high as 20. As we reached higher elevations, the wind picked up and we took to sheltering our faces, as seen in the photo posted earlier ... they assured me they were smiling underneath.
Above is a look at McMurdo Station from above. Behind it is Ob Hill, mentioned in an earlier post. I have another photo from the hike to share with you, but I'm going to save it for a later post to package it with another I plan to take.
A peek at my day: it's Sunday morning now and I'll be leaving in about 90 minutes for a trip to the sea ice. I was awarded a "morale trip" for some reason. I will accompany and assist a team of researchers studying seals. That's all I know at this time. Hopefully, I will have some way cool photos to share.
