Mike and Rodrigo,
I hope you two are helping to keep your class on track because remember…..I’ll be back!
The weather is great.  24-hour sunlight, almost no snow, light winds, mostly clear skies and temperatures that stay between 25-35?F.   The ship has 3 built-in cranes.  The smallest is on the front of the Oden and is just for lifting the CTD over the side.  Next to it on the bow is a medium sized crane for lifting a man-basket onto the ice.  On the stern of the Oden is the big crane that can lift things 100 feet up.      Making memories in the ice,
Mr. Peneston
