Eclipse...No, Twilight...no, it's New Moon...Definitely Eclipse

Greetings,

Another late add by yours truly, but us Antarctic folk were treated with a rare partial solar eclipse on the 25th of November.  It covered about 77% of the sun and the event lasted about two hours.  It was fun to see the community out and about the day before Thanksgiving taking part in the event.  A nice reward for everyone working hard during that first month of the summer season. 

Ironically enough, there was a total lunar eclipse on the other side of the world (back home) two weeks later.  So it was nice to share with the other hemisphere the beauty that these celestial bodies can give us. 

In case if I don't write again, I wish you all a wonderful holiday season!

I pity the foo' who doesn't respect Bingo!

'Sup,

Yep, that's me out there as Mr. T.  I did some volunteering at South Pole by leading the Bingo game last month.  The normal person who had done it became ill and wasn't able to participate.  So some people on the station wanted someone to lead the way and I was willing to step in.  I decided to do an 80's theme for the Bingo night and I took things up a notch.  I definitely had a lot of fun that night calling numbers and see who else dressed up.  There were also great reviews from the community as well.  It sounds like something that I might do again someday but probably not for the rest of the season.

Ta-ta!
