snow day!

11-1-11

I remember those wonderful days while in school when it would be cancelled due to snow. Well today, we had a snow day at work! We got sent home 4 hours early b/c we got a condition 1 everywhere except on the base (McMurdo had condition 2), so there was nothing we could do. It was definitely quite the blizzard! Complete white outs. I had courier again today, but they were worried b/c of how cold it was (-8F with -40F windchill) that I shouldn't walk so they trained me in the little electric vehicle. It's kind of like a mix between a mini humvee and a golf cart. It was pretty fun to drive around the base b/c it it isn't 4wd and is light, so you do a lot of spinning around in it.
