photo of a museum case that contains a grotesque looking doll with short curly blonde hair and an old timey beige bathing suit on. She is laying on her stomach with strange elongated arms and legs and a head that sticks straight up in a way that is not physically possible. Apparently, she is a wind-up doll built to be able to do the breast stroke in pools.

A photo of an essay titled Thoughts Beside the James Caird. A story About the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1914 to 1917). It is marked with teacher's corrections, and says the following: The wind was chilling. It had always been there: Strong, icy winds that never seemed to let up. It was as if this wind was the only thing that Ernest Shackleton knew. Well, Perhaps it was, Considering that he and his crew had been braving this harsh punishment for over a year. He had memorized its scent, its feel, its taste. He saw nothing the gusts blinded him. But the wind was with him, too. It was the wind that brought him here, to South Georgia Island as he rode on the lifeboat, the James Caird, with hand-picked men. The wind led him as he led them across the tireless ocean, the rest of his crew waiting hopefully on Elephant Island. These men were counting on him. They wanted to live. They wanted to survive. He wouldn't let a single one die. This was his new mission, now that his dreams to be the first to cross the South Pole were nonexistent. Shackleton, being the "Ultimate Leader", would not give up. He was an explorer, a man of expeditions. This was his life. He leaned against the fired frame of the James Caird as John prepared what meager dish they could make to satiate their hunger. He remembered his ship, his beautiful ship, the Endurance. He saw her slowly be crushed and engulfed by the hungry ice. The men salvaged what they could as her glory was demolished in a slow, painful gulp. It had taken what...seven, eight months for the ship's drift to end in destruction? The crew had watched with melancholy hearts, holding on to their belongings as some of their hope sunk softly.
