On The Write Path

Antarctica Day 2. Starry, starry night.

I wrote to 💙 Carly : "I'm not there ... but you probably are aware of that by now. I will check in. If just to rescue [you-know-who] if he asks!

In many ways both poles are deserts. The water is frozen and for sure piles up but without winds over warm currents there's little snowfall in the interior... what's there has been there for millennia.

Where there is water there is life. Without muddy runoff the waters may be clear enough to let the light penetrate further [during summer]. I don't snorkel but I'd like to see what's under the surface of the sea.

There are not as many stars in the southern sky, but at least you can see them!

A map of the sky full of stars y'all might like:

A personal note: I'll peek in ... you know I will! ... because that's what I do. But July drained me I had about 100 poems/blogs to write and I did most but not all of them. I need a month off.

And my 'characters? Well, unless there's a place to party and show off, Quentin or Sara Shoom wouldn't be very interested. As for the vamps? Lily already slept for a century after she fell (pushed...?) in a crack in a glacier. She loves the cold and is tempted. She does warn y'all ... be careful ... the world goes on without you while you sleep. The others are NOT amused. Tackling a leopard seal for a blood-fix doesn't seem appealing. I can hear the vamps in Portugal laughing from here, "there are beaches and then there are beaches". Jarom might like your company; he's lonely. Akaisama ... being a mountain ... can't join you. And Ao and Hanuda have their own struggles (it's why they have remained silent). Oriole might like the change of landscape, but you didn't invite him!
