Preparations.

This initiates my blog. I have begun packing, and I still have a week before I leave. This is a new personal best. What do I need to keep from freezing parts off while working outside in the Bering sea in Winter? Almost all of my ski gear is going, long johns of course, and lots of layers. I will overpack, but I still expect to be painfully cold for at least some portion of the cruise. Gonna be drinking a lot of coffee next month. Got packing to do. More later.
