Ever wonder what it's like to work in Antarctica? Monday, March 06, 2006. Posted 3/06/2006 08:56:00 PM. UTC 12, McMurdo Local Time. What a long, strange trip it's been! Regretfully, in the act of measuring my words here, I know that I've leaned towards being a bit dry at times. Regardless, its been fun to keep up with posting the news, pictures, random thoughts and then getting feedback from friends, family, and even occasionally people I've never met. Thanks for following along! Wednesday, March 01, 2006.

Ever wonder what it's like to work in Antarctica? Friday, July 08, 2005. Posted 7/08/2005 07:04:00 AM. UTC 12, McMurdo Local Time. Got a letter in the mail from RPSC the other day - the check for medical exam reimbursement. That was fast, and easy! Also, it sounds like there's a (new) program that will let me get reimbursed for up to $150 on a pair of insulated work boots! So who is this guy? Fuels Operator" aka Fuelie.

Ever wonder what it's like to work in Antarctica? Wednesday, November 30, 2005. Posted 11/30/2005 12:12:00 PM. UTC 12, McMurdo Local Time. Sorry for the recent lull in interesting posts! We had an internet outage down here Sunday and Monday, so I wasn't able to play catchup with this thing, digital pictures, email, etc. The time difference between here and the states means that for me to call people at a reasonable hour I have to get up extra early on workdays (yeah right,) or get lucky and grab a line o...

Ever wonder what it's like to work in Antarctica? Monday, October 31, 2005. Posted 10/31/2005 08:09:00 PM. UTC 12, McMurdo Local Time. Probably a good thing that I was driving one of the ancient "Alpine 1's", which are designed more for pulling stuff than our new machine that has a speedo that goes to 130. After lunch we bolted a couple big sections of culvert together with the help of a Caterpillar 950 loader to get things lined up, directed the digging of a trench, put down some dunnage. Been pretty bu...
