I tried to ignore the constant warnings from Evan (my roommate and personal weatherman in State College) and foolishly believe that the rainy/windy wrath of Sandy wouldn’t delay me. However, my flights out of State College and Philadelphia were cancelled. The good people at ASC travel in Boulder Colorado rescheduled me to depart tomorrow morning, Oct 31 @ 10:10 am. If all goes well (knock on wood) I will be arriving in Christchurch, NZ Friday afternoon for a few days of training prior to my departure to McMurdo Station.
Cheers, Adam
