Yep, here is part of the motley crew in one of the construction/maintenance shops we fondly refer to as the L.O. (Logistics Office) part of the Amundsen-Scott South Pole station. This was
where we dined on charred whole pig and various burgers, dogs and bbq chicken with all the fixin's.
We played darts and poker and drank beer that was kept chilled in a sled. Then had red white blue cupcakes. Americana all-round! Happy Birthday, USA!

Hopefully you saved a little hooch for the other birthday this week! (Wednesday?) By the way, what time zone are you all in? It occurs to me that at the pole, you can walk around it and go through all the time zones in a matter of minutes!
