Feb 14 Cape Hallett, Antarctica.
Continued measuring meter next
distance in the slurry with the help of
Joe Descent. Spent the morning working
in Bruno North part of the slurry +
got most of it done. Afternoon was spent
mostly talking but I did check the pots

night was a party for Bernie Pope a Seabee
who is leaving on the amel for McMurdo
Sound. Sunday the place was pretty living
over but everyone managed to make it
up by 2 PM for the N+D* softball game
between Civilian + Navy. The cook broke his

running the bases - but this barely
slowed the game. Five innings were
played, score was Navy 79, Civilian 19.
