Colorado

Well we have been in Colorado for the past couple weeks and Cliff has jumped right into his new job with both feet. He likes it quite well but the hours are horrendous. He gets up in the morning anywhere from 3am on and usually gets home between 6pm and 9pm. To say the hours are long is an understatement. He is enjoying the work and camaraderie of his fellow employees so that makes the hours bearable. He works two weeks on and one week off so that allows us to come home every two weeks. We are in fact home now and go back to Colorado tomorrow so he can be at work on Wednesday morning. We are both NOT looking forward to going back but are THANKFUL we have a good job and are able to pay our bills etc.

The pictures are of a well head with all Calfrac's equipment staged for the guys to fracture for natural gas. They have to haul all this stuff in , set it up, operate it, then tear it down and haul it to the next location. Quite a job and dangerous to boot. I try not to think of that part. It looks like somewhere around of the middle of October Cliff's crew (red crew) will be sent to Minot, North Dakota for a couple weeks then sent into rotation between there and Grand Junction for the rest of the winter. When he is in ND I will go back to Mesquite and wait for him there. So anyway that's the story right now. Sure appreciate my hard working man. Gordy says "Grandpa erking". That's the understatement
