Dickinson on aging
"Old age comes on suddenly, and not gradually as is thought." Emily Dickinson
It's spring, and time for an expedition north of the rquator. Ben Saunders tipped me off to Project Hope(http://en.expedition-hope.org), a skiing trip from the North Pole to Ottawa to raise awareness of global warming and the melting of the ice caps.
Heading off onto the great frozen ocean. Drop off @ 90 Degrees North tonight. Sleeping at North Pole #expeditionhope pic.twitter.com/ok8O5Mh4gs
