36 straight hours out in the TX panhandle without any sleep.

24 hr shifts (my first single operator job)

36 miles into Pampa. :mad:

...I'd like to add the numbers 11, 5.5, 2, & 1. Those are the mbps I'm getting from the wireless router...meaning I can only catch a signal about 3 hrs. a day or a few minutes at a time. 11 works fine if I put the laptop against the front wall of the RV...2 & 1 means no signal. I'm so missin' the SO. :(

Goodness, you're near my brother's wife's hometown of Miami, Texas.

I've done two wells close to Miami this year. They close the town, turn off the lights, & roll up the roads at about 7pm.

Oh, and 0 cell service.

Keep all those numbers in mind in case you ever crash on a remote, deserted island. They might come in handy.

Been out here since the 7th. Should be finished around the 17-18th. Bring the steaks--no alcohol on location though. :(

Hell, I got plenty of good food here. I usually bring steaks, chicken & fresh veggies. Since I'm here by myself, I can only go to town when the rig's down...which hasn't happened yet. I sent a list with one of the drillers who went into Pampa today, so I'm good.

However, if you wanna see what this rig stuff is like here's the directions:

Take hwy 152 to Pampa (or whatever route you choose)
North on hwy 70 about 35 miles 'til you see the Unit #332 sign (which is almost hidden and right by the road...turn east onto location & follow the signs, which is about 2 miles of windy dirt roads.

nothing like finding a location..
heck, if my grandmother pulls through gall bladder surgery i might just make that run out there.

I didn't think you could get to a drilling rig without the proper use of orange flagging tape.

Who do you work for?
