Victoria Shaw wrote the following that inspired me:
To many times we stand aside and let the waters slip away.
'Til we put off 'til tomorrow has now become today.
So don't you stand upon the shore line and say your satisfied.
Choose to chance the rapids and dare to dance the tide.

My two sisters, Debbie and Linda, and I took a nice vacation to Deadwood, South Dakota and just had a blast. We took the loop to Mt. Rushmore. over the Iron Trail Road through three tunnels cut in granite. The tunnels are aligned with Mt. Rushmore as you can see by the second and third pictures !! We then went through Custer National Park and seen about 300 Tatanka !! Crazy Horse was next on the list along with a great lunch at the Bakers Bakery & Cafe in Custer, South Dakota. We went back to Deadwood and spent some time at the Casino's.
On the way home we looped over to Devils Tower just for the fun of it.

U.S. Antarctic Program Site and McMurdo/South Pole/Palmer Station Webcams Click the Map
This is a picture from the NSF page from a aircraft over Mt. Erabus. I put some labels on some of the locations where I worked daily. The ice road and Pegasus Field is about 14 miles from McMurdo and are approximate.
Note the location of Castle Rock as many of us x country skied to and climbed it on our days off. It is about 2 miles from McMurdo Station. I climbed Observation Hill almost every week! Click on Working in Antarctica "The ICE" for pictures of my fun! Quite a place for sure!
Matthew Nelson from Montana is sharing a blog with students around the U.S. while in Antarctica for winter over. Click here MATT'S Blog
Matt sent this picture of the Aurora Australis over McMurdo Station. Shot was about 25 seconds and ISO of about 800 as I noticed no speckles in the exposure. Great pictures Matt thanks.
