CHRIS HAS A HAPPY BIRTHDAY



ABOVE: (top) Chris was kind enough to share his birthday cake with others. (bottom) Chris and others, taken in 1997 around the time of his 40th birthday, also in Antarctica.

Chris turned 50 today. We had a cake at midnight -- lunch for those of us on the night shift -- and there's a party planned for later today. It was quite an undertaking to get a cake. Luckily, ANDRILL's McMurdo contact, Leslie, was able to procure one for us. Thanks, Leslie!

Chris also spent his 40th birthday at McMurdo Station. I wonder where he'll be on his 60th -- here again?
