Hey Mike! I was wondering what life on the base is like? When the weather allows you to go outside, where can you go? How many people are there right now? Is everyone a scientist? What kind of things do you get to eat? I hope you and Thordore are adjusting to your new surroundings!! I can't wait to read more about your adventures. Happy Trails! Katie

Hey Katie, Great questions! I think I've answered a few on them in today's
journal. So, check that out first by [clicking

A few that I didn't answer. Most people on station right now are not
scientists. In fact, during WinFly there will be only three science
groups. Most of the scientists will arrive at "main body" beginning in
October and lasting until February.
Great question about going outside. We can walk around "town" as much
as we like. There are a few hiking trails, but they require safety
training and checking out with the firehouse. I plan to do some hiking
soon (if the weather cooperates), so stay tuned!
Theodore says "Hi!". Look for him in some upcoming journals. Thanks
for following.
