Originally the diary of 4 months spent in Antarctica working as a documentary film sound recordist, this blog has evolved into an online repository for the thoughts, travels and trivia of the writer Richard Fleming. For McMurdo Station, Antarctica, and polar exploration, see August through December of '06. Currently you are likely to find in these pages chronicles of my actual and literary meanderings, as well as notes on my many other passions. Also, did I mention I wrote a book?

Prime McMurdo Waterfront Real Estate
Many flights later we touched down today at noon on the ice runway out on the frozen sea, about ten miles from McMurdo station. I have some great photos and, one hopes, humorous remarks to post about some parts of the long trip here from New York and I will get to those soon, but for now I just wanted to let everybody know that our happy film crew is here and safe. The bad news is we are also warm. Today it is only Zero F, about forty degrees warmer than one would normally expect. Sell your beachfront property.

Fellow cryophiles are delighted to learn that the Brooklynite has arrived on the ice cap. Now it is much to be hoped that he will learn the correct usage of the adverb "hopefully". He has set out on his journey hopefully. He hopes there are some good photographs among those he has shot...
I have no idea what you are talking about...
