Weather: Beautiful, clear, calm. Light winds and cloud systems moving through with enough clear conditions to land a plane! Temps around -26F.
THE STATION IS OPEN!! IT IS OFFICIALLY SUMMER!
Seeing new people is weird.
Today was very exciting having a plane arrive and knowing it was the end of winter. Summer has now started and it seems as though winter is long-gone.
Some of these new folks will be wintering and some will just be helping out for the summer. Either way, we feel weird and awkward around these new people. Our stories revolve around a year no one cares about and no one experienced down here. Meanwhile everyone has been living in COVID-land for the past 10 months, so their stories are different and disparate from ours.
People are weird. But hey. It’s SUMMER TIME!!!!
