St. Patty's Day on the ice has once again come and gone. There was large amounts of Jamesons and Guines consumed, and , merryment made. It was quiet on station the next day as everyone was recovering....from all the dancing.

The weather has finally started to look much more like Antarctica. We are sitting at -30f with howling winds and blowing snow. There is still open water in front of the station. It is errie to look out at it, covered in a thin vale of fog mixed with the blowing snow. Yet the water is flat, still and very quiet. As I look out on it, it is easy to imagine an old wooden ship slowly making its way through the fog and cold like a ghost ship lost in time.


Anyway,
Happy St. Pat's day
