Changing of the guard

28 March 2012 | McMurdo, Station, Antarctica
Two more days until the new contractor takes over. Mother Raytheon is out on the 31st and Lockeed Martin takes over. Most of us on station will be working for the subcontractor PAE. They do primarily Embassy work. We know there is going to be a lot of change around here, hopefully, it will be the change that is needed. We shall see.

Life on station is good. The sun is aready below the horizon more than it is above. This is the best part of the season because of the sunsets and sunrises. The color is amazing, it's a whole different pallet of color. A pallet I have only seen here and at sea. We still have a lot of open water in front of the station which just adds another element of beauty. Not to mention a little humidity, much need humidity. Even though it is cold, it is nice to walk down by the water. It Calms the soul.

Cheers
