We did volunteer trail maintenance today (our day off) on the Ob Hill Loop. Lots of fun, and they paid us with Ross Island Trail placards!

It was a mellow Saturday Night for Robin & Me, but we DID go to Southern for a bit and we DID win a round of darts against Brian & Jeremy.

Today was my last day in the Plumb Shop, and I'll be reporting to the Electrical Shop first thing Monday morning - from Pinky to Sparky.

Using the band saw, we cut a Backflow Prevention Valve in half (for training purposes) and I got to sandblast it clean at the Heavy Shop. :)

Robin introduced me to Dagoba Lavender & Blueberry Dark Chocolate yesterday. Yum! But, why does it contain "less than 0.1%" milk? Curious.

Today is my ONE MONTH anniversary back in Antarctica. It's been pretty great so far, and I have a feeling that it's only gonna get better.

Robin stayed home sick today, so I went home at lunch to cuddle. After work I brought DINNER FOR TWO back to the room - it's so romantic.

A lot of the South Pole winter-overs are stopping at McMurdo on their home. It blows my mind trying to imagine what that would be like.

I rocked out to Pork Soda (Primus) this afternoon while grinding the coating off some 2" steel pipe. It's been so long and I still love it.

I'm thinking about making my Twitter account private (but still having it post to Facebook). Can you think of a reason not to?

Robin went to Marble Point for the day (on a helicopter!!) with Zach the Painter, so I saved some chocolate chip cookies for her from lunch.

Robin had a hangout date tonight with Brodie, so I went to Gallagher's for some arcade Galaga action! I'm pretty bad, but I like it.

I spent the whole day in the Plumb Shop fitting 3 new boilers for a pressure test. We gotta make sure they don't leak before we install 'em.

Sneak preview of the first episode from the new BBC series LIFE. It was pretty good, but a bit more sensational than PLANET EARTH.

I spent most of the day with Justin putting in a new sprayer thing on the sink in the Salad Room. It's strange being back in the Galley.

Robin and I watched THE IRON GIANT last night. It was her first time seeing it and she said it was "OK." Really?
