About 9 am Hunter took me out to my gate. After I gat unhooked and leveled Joey brought a load of caliche to lay down, but instead of under me it is all around the back and side where I will be walking. Hopefully that will help with mud when it rains.
Hunter had me completely set up by 4 pm. He had to go back to Carrizo Springs for some stuff that he needed. He also stopped and filled up my 3 gallon water bottle.
I am an a gate where they are putting in a new well., so the fun begins. It has been busy on and off all day, but I am told that when they bring the rig in, it will be no stop. Sleep will prove to be just catnaps. we’ll see how it goes. It’s after 9 pm and 6 more trucks just came in. They will probably be here less than an hour
I haven’t posted in a while because my laptop was where I couldn’t get it, as I didn’t put my slides out while I was waiting for the gate. We hand very bad weather last Monday night. Funnel clouds were spotted about 20 miles North of where I was parked. This is just a very short post, as I will be very busy. I’ll try to post pics when I can
Thanks for visiting
Susan and Angel
Good luck with the gate job. Friends, John and Diane, loved being gate guards and are going to go back again next fall.
ReplyDeleteI'll be thinking about you and Angel. Please try to post or send a note so we will know you are doing okay. Best of luck in your new venture.
ReplyDeleteI just tries to post today's and it is still trying to publish. I'm not sure about the Internet connection here. It was ok yesterday.
DeleteGood luck with your new assignment. That will be very interesting, but sounds tiring. At least you'll be getting paid better there doing that job. Thanks for the update, and we'll look forward to hearing how you're doing as you go along there.
ReplyDeleteGlad your finally at your gate. I hope it won't be too muddy. No mail today. hopefully tomorrow if so I'll come for a short visit.I've been busy here w/ Mike.Talk to you soon. Love Ya Evelyn
ReplyDeleteWhoa, that sounds scarey! Funnel clouds that close? Glad they stayed away from you.
ReplyDeleteIt must be nice to be settled again. I'm looking forward to seeing photos when you have time to post some.
So are you on the gate 24 hours a day? You can't get by for long on just cat naps.
Congrats on your gate! Should be an adventure! Hope you will be safe and as comfortable as possible. Keep us updated. Let the fun begin!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on getting your gate! Should be an adventure! Hope you will be comfortable and safe. Do let us know how you are doing. Good luck and enjoy!
ReplyDeleteIf you get a little discouraged or tired.. just keep thinking...125.00, 250.00, 375.00, 500.00 !!! That helps !
ReplyDeleteThat's funny, because that's what I am constantly telling myself. I'm here for the money!!
DeleteYou've got this. Just take care of yourself and keep us posted. Phil and Rudee's "chant" reminds me of the scene with Natalie Wood as a little girl in "Miracle on 34th Street" where she just keeps repeating, "I believe. I believe." :)
