We have been remiss lately in not updating this site. A minor medical problem, now resolved, got us into the situation where fall chores were not getting done on time. We are now recovered pretty well, the dock is out of the water, the wood is stacked for winter, and the numerous other chores are complete.
Winter is settling in, the lake is skinned over, and the ground is white. Back to work on McMurdo’s camp. Next up: The Rascally Lascar.
Housekeeping item: When writing a non-fact type article, it is sometimes necessary for the writer to refer to himself. There are different ways of doing this, and to this author, they all seem a little clumsy. I don’t like first-person singular, and first person plural seems better but has its own shortcomings. A better way has not made itself known to our writing staff, however, and we are aware that I have not been consistent. A standard needs to be established.
We have decided that first-person collective (plural) will be the standard used at McMurdo’s Camp. We at McMurdo’s Camp will refer to ourself(ourselves) as “we” or “us”.
