My first post with some pics, Hello you all!
Hello good people of TRF! I come in peace
 This is a great forum, and you all have given me lots of joy and information as I sail the seas. I bring you greetings from the Ice floes of the Northern Scandinavia of plus 65 degrees of Northern latitude.  I must confess that I have been silently lurking around for a couple of months here on TRF. However the GMT Masters´s Modernisti thread got me moving! Where can I sign for duty?

Thank you for the warm welcome!
Thanks Paulie 50 and rest of you lot!
MonBK: Neither. I work on an Icebreaker. I can tell you people, that this winter has really been something else all together! We have had some of the most extraordinary hummocks and consolidated ice ridges! It is no common that you have ice ridges up to 10m above the ice level! Remember that this is not the Antarctic, the ice melts every summer...

Welcome to TRF and thanks for the great photos! It's 55 F here in Dallas this morning, but with the wind chill, I think it got down to 54 this morning. Stay warm!
