Udpate from Grace
A small ship became a large ship as the sun went behind the 10 story ice cubes. S. Silent cry—dreams stay in place between the ice blocks. If you can’t see them, they can’t hear you. If they can hear you, they can see you. Neither works on this small-ship-turned-large.
Small-boat-turned-large, camel through the eye of the needle. 3 points plus an anchor in between the massive ice cubes through the night, the rain, the snow, the gale force winds. We rocked the ropes—-but Ezziedanced the ropes and landed gracefully atop the zodiac-gone-360 in a flash.
Today, is Antarctica. Up until today, who can really say where we’ve been.
Today is icy wind and blowing up a gale. We hardly know where we’ve been before but the small-boat-turned-large is buttoned down by the 3 magic points.
Tomorrow is new magic, new time, space, unlike today.

GRACE! Awfully good to hear from you. So so in awe of your adventure & the brilliant nature you’re seeing. When you return, I need to hear all about this. You’ve inspired me!! What you’re doing is nothing short of life-changing! Safe travels to all!
Hey Grace. Button, Kim and I are following your progress. Looks like a great adventure!
Absolutely magical! What an adventure. So glad we get to follow the adventures from afar.
Hi Grace. We are keeping track of your pilgrim’s progress. Godspeed. Van and Denise
Wonderful Grace!! The Explorers have nothing on you. They will have to find other names or you will have to claim one of higher rank. You and Nancy have now been where none of us ever have!! Looking forward to the Tale. Sending love—Gigi and MikeO
Grace ,
from now on you will be the fourth Explorer !
So exciting! I can’t wait to see your pics and hear your stories!!!
Grace/Nancy – so if your mast is 12 noon, then there is one visible line to shore at about 5 o’clock and presumably an invisible anchor line off the bow – is the 3rd line the water surface anomaly at about 10 o’clock? And what about moonglow and the Southern Cross? and what color is moon glow reflecting off magical blue glacier ice?
Hey, Grace! If you haven’t written all this down (to go with the pictures), I hope you do when you get home! I know you’ll do it right! So excited for you! (And worried that you’re warm enough!) Stay safe and see you soon! Dawny
