Top events of the past two weeks --
Went to the Antarctic Under The Sea Prom - Ryan and I have officially been to prom now ;)
Went to Ice Caves - It was an ice slide entry into the most beautiful room made of glacier.
Pretended I was an early Antarctic Explorer when I visited Shackleton's Hut built in 1904.
Drove a Piston Bully (Watch out groomers, here I come.)
Shared Thanksgiving with a wonderful group of people, enjoyed good fresh veggies and played games.
Completed my own project in the Carp Shop using table saw, router, hinges and other fancy pieces of equipment
Now I can place installing Windows on my resume
Took my first flight in a Helicopter. Hooked massive loads to the chopper.
Saw a Penguin -- That is correct I have now seen a Penguin
Saturday, December 6 -
It was a really special day. I got the chance to spend it with new friends. Followed by a great hike on the Hut Point Ridge overlooking the Ross Ice Shelf. It was a time of reflecting on the crazy and wonderful year. It has been a year now and not a day goes by that she is not near.
Today ---
Sunday December 7
Day off--Woo Hoo!!! Sunday is Brunch day,we even got cheese with our fabulous spread. It was a beautiful day and Ryan and I took off on the Castle Rock Trail to ski/hike and get out of town. On the trail we ran into Jules Uberaga a fellow Idahoan (and a former Emmette resident and friend of the Sarah Wilcon Family) that has been coming down to the ice for 30 years now. The 7 mile loop trip took us out on a ridge under Castle Rock and then down to the New Zealand - Antarctic Ski Resort. We were invited to take a ride up their rope toe. It was great, I can now say I have skied in Antarctica, Hawaii and Idaho and Utah this year. :) Oh the novelty.
I am still loving it here and having a hard time believing I am actually here sometimes.

Sounds amazing and exhausting! Do you have much "down" time; and how are the walls on those rooms?
Thinking of you often, still no snow.
What an amazing year you are having. I can't think of a better place for you to spend time in quiet reflection.
Things here are great...no snow yet. Your dad is doing great, the family is good and we think of you daily.
Enjoy the ride!
Love ya,
Karla and Holly
