April 14 - Camp Epilogue: Reflections of A First Ice Camp

I learned a little bit about what Jackie and Jen know. I learned more about myself. I learned that I still have a lot to learn. I learned how to delegate better, channel myself into positive efforts, and most importantly how to let go of situations beyond my control.

We are very lucky. The weather was very accommodating, the location was spectacular, and we have so many people to thank for all their effort and support. I learned on this trip that it takes roughly 100 people to put one person like me on a remote site like this and keep the basics functioning.

Most of all, I've learned to listen to the strength of others, ask important questions, keep my hands busy, my attitude positive, and my mind at peace. With these fundamental elements, I feel in balance with my life and the existence of others around me.
