Changes

The rain has stopped, the ground has dried, the mud has disappeared.  Jim and I have shook out the rugs, bathed the dogs paws, sprayed off outside carpets to get all the mud out of everything.  Changes….

The tubing has been completed on one of the pads and the companies involved in that left over the last few days.  It’s been kind of hard because you develop small relationships with these men that you see and talk to two to four times a day.  It’s sad to see them go. Changes….

Leo, the man who got me the bear hat, mentioned he liked my green, buttoned hat and asked for one without the button.  This is the hat I came up with.

Here’s Leo with his hat. A hat pattern changed….

 

 

 

The bleak, gray sunsets have given way to some beautiful sunsets.  This was yesterday’s sunset.

  4. I'm reading it so keep writing. We are headed to Q tomorrow and will miss seeing you there. It has been very cold here and at Q so not looking forward to leaving our electric heater which keeps the rig from freezing. Woke up to frozen water pipes this morning as well as yesterday. Not to happy with the weather, but it ain't any better in Seattle. Hugs to both of you. vicky & terry webb

  8. Love the hat. Wish I could up-load my pictures so you could see what I have been making. BTW Did you see the lights in the sky? Oil field workers near Cotulla, Tx said they saw a UFO.
