Sorry. Thanks PJ for drawing this to my attention. I believe I have now made it "public." Let me know if not

Over the years, many have enjoyed Carl Nolte's writing in the SF Chronicle At 88, Carl is San Francisco's oldest working journalist, and it was a pleasure to meet this character on Kilkenny beach at the annual Inverness YC cook and camp out the day after the 110 Nationals concluded...As Carl's tent neighbor, I'm sure Ants has more to say. But here is what Carl wrote about Kilkenny. It's a fun read:

Kilkenny and Inverness Yacht Club and TSCA and Carl Nolte and Skip and Milly and so many more. It was a smorgasbord of delight that moved from the beach to IYC to on the water, and repeat as many times as possible.
Carl Nolte is an iconic SF writer, publishing as the Native Son in the SF Chronicle. As I was getting background information about Carl, his one quote of never retiring stood out. It is safe the same comment can be applied to Skip and sailing. Carl was doing his ‘job’ and gathering information during the entire he was there. There were folks to talk with, details to observe, and photos to collect. The gathering began before sunrise while the clouds and sun made Tomales Bay a visual treat of changing conditions. There were tales to hear and tales to tell. I would imagine Carl’s pleasure as a writer is from the details of prior trips that come readily to mind. It doesn’t happen with me (darn).
When the ideas get put onto paper, the magic of verbally composing the picture takes place. Go Carl Go.
A tomales bay sunrise has scenes like this.

As long as Critter and Philpott are raiding the CBC freezer for Macapuno, we might as well offer them company. First to correctly answer the 2 questions below wins a bowl of Macapuno with a lemon bar topping. Go for it!
Question with 2 hints: What is the below and what are the 12 ants at the bottom? Photo taken Aug.21, 2022

It seems to be a drone picture of the South Pole, with people playing the role of ants. The polar lights are fantastic.
I can not give the people any names since I know they are not my Bodfish neighbors.

PS. Oops, I guessed before I confirmed. The prize is still open.

Not a drone photo, nor are the "ants" people...Sounds like you know the answer, Ants. Let us in on it before someone else figures it out.
