The item listed in the last email, our MYSTERY ITEM is ……
A snowshoe for the ponies that Capt Scott used for his trip to the pole..
Amundsen who made it first, used dogs…he had a wise decision by choosing
dogs…
Capt Scott who made it to the South Pole second and later died on his
return, used ponies to pull the sleds.. not a wise choice, they later became
food.. did i mention that he died?
I got allot of very interesting answers to my question… but the only ones
that got it right are the people that were here in Antarctica. But that
disqualifies them….
Have a great day.. Were in the middle of a very thick storm now… i can see
just about 25 feet outside… time to walk to work!!
