Forever Winfly

Some moments-in-photo from delayed-flights life in McMurdo....


Saturday night silliness at Southern bar:




 Game night in Hut 10 (a game called Code Names that I've never seen before but that was very fun):

Contemplating the endless bad weather out the window:




A break in the clouds looking out over the ice shelf toward the continent:



One winter-over trying to comfort another (who has been on the Ice more than 13 months and counting) over the continuing delays, though she cannot at this point be comforted:



Six firefighters and the store's liaison in the Supply department, all frantically digging out the store dock during a brief break in the weather so we could try to get the beverage delivery into the store on time (since the only things worse than people who are stuck here against their will is people stuck here against their will who can't have a glass of wine to calm themselves):



A nod, on the rec schedule on the white board outside the galley, to my favorite childhood movie, "The Neverending Story." And the Swamp of Sadness of a two-week delay to the start of Mainbody....
