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?
Hey Rich, Jay Silver here. I've been keeping an eye on your postings and thought I'd respond after seeing this one about Shakelton's stuff. I read one of those books about him and saw a lot of footage and photos of their experience. Must be pretty wild to walk into a time capsule like that. Hope you're doing well down there. Take care, Jay

Great scott - imagine baking a cake in the south pole
where are the penguins?
These are some of my favourite things
-- from a British childhood ... Birds custard, Bovril ...
But now that I am a US citizen (as of yesterday)
I must put away these childish things ... along with the spelling above.
a very poignant post
