Another Day at the Office....BRRR!

Blizzard Conditions at Work......Again! The above picture is the view from my work trailer.
This is the view of the rig from my work trailer.


Blowing Snow





It seems as though Winter is here. The high today was -18 and the low last night was -32 with a windchill of -52. We still drill in these conditions, but things move alot slower. The Rig Hands spend thier day making sure the rig doesn't freeze up. We should see a little bit of a warm up by Thursday, they high then is 5 above. Not exactly a heat wave but we'll take it. I'm not sure how many inches of snow we got here at work but Bismarck got 12.5 inches. I'm sure glad we bought a new snowblower after the last storm. Beth took a few pictures at home and I'm sure she'll get them up within a few days.
Karen, I think our North Dakota Winter Wonderland beats yours. Ha Ha Ha.

Oh yeah I am so sure I could handle the winter there. It was like 72 today and I was in long sleeve and pants outside. I will let you know about the move, we are looking for something a little bigger as long as it is in our million dollar budget!!!
