You could be proud






Today the guy I have been working with and myself, got to go home at noon with the rest of the day paid. They said we have been getting the work done so quickly and correctly that they're rewarding us this way.













We had to run this pipe from the box that you can see to the top to where it is now all from a crane basket. It finishes about 200ft off the ground, they were happy to have that done, I was just happy to be up that high to see the scenery.





There is a person in that little window on the left side of the crane, honestly that window is not that small.









This past weekend I went up to Garden City to look around, it was bigger than here but still not big enough to have a good mall or anything like that but I did pass a really cool looking sunflower field.











I realized what makes this place stink so bad.


1. The wind blow constantly and usually it around 20mph or higher.


2. There is nothing to stop any smells, no hills, no trees, nothing...no wonder a tornado blows this place away.

3.




Holding lots...lots of them, very large and very bad smelling.


I'm still enjoying the job, but I am ready to go home, looks like it will still be a month or two. This company here is planning on having work here until January, but I'm hoping to be home before that.

They did it

They told us today that are going to twelve hours starting tomorrow, so there will be less pictures and things because this guy will be going to bed. I have some things now that I will get on the post soon. Now I have to get ready for these long days of work after so long of taking my sabbath.

WWHHHHYYYYYYYYYYY

Year before last they lots and lots of hurricanes. I wanted to surf but didn't have a board and was in Tennessee. Last year we bought boards, surfed nothing because there was no hurricanes and not really any waves. I've been home, doing nothing, since January and no real waves to surf again.

Now I have been gone two weeks and we have a tropical storm coming in and the waves are picking up. The Weather Channel was on the beach and there was people surfing in the back ground, I was jealous.

This really makes me angry!!!!!!!!!

Some interesting weather

When the week ended we had had some 100 degree weather during the days and some high 60s in the nights, then all of a sudden the weather changed. So we put down the Guitar Hero controller, looked outside, saw.....














Soon our hotel was up in the air and we didn't know what to do, so we held on to our clothes and the Playstation 3 and tried to wait to land. We flew for what seemed almost forever, then finally it all stopped and we landed. It was strange though...like our hotel was unlevel. We checked ourselves out, we were okay so we decided to check out the damage outside and why our hotel was so strange feeling. It really didn't take that long to figure out. We had landed on something or should I say...someone.











We realized we weren't in Kanas anymore...Ha ha.







We had come to some other land that didn't smell like cow manure-------->

















There was funny looking people---------->






















There was also famous people....and we did hang out with all of them.







Really we went to the Dorthy museum, then after that we went to the Liberal Aircraft Museum. We had a good time, we did things that two guys normally wouldn't do, but it's better than going to the bar with the guys from work.





Work has been good because the humidity is down. It has been 102 but it felt like high 80s- low 90s. The wind blows all the time, which means the dirt does too. Every day the white wash cloths of the hotel turn brown with our showers.





The main thing I like about this place is the sunrises...they happen every morning(can you believe that), and we are up to see them. I have been taking pictures of them and will continue, I will post all of them sometime for you to enjoy also.



For now just enjoy these.

You can't see the plane that Rudy is controlling, there is a plane up above you that you control the wings and rudders and stuff, to see what the controls really do.





This is not a real person...that is why we are so cool.

One down





One week down. The job is easy. I guess they got the word on what we knew...we are inside doing the good work.






It's something I've never done, so it's okay. We're staying in a hotel so we don't have to clean the room. Only thing is we can't really cook so we have to eat out. We have had some time off so we have done a little playing, today we went fishing, caught a big, fat nothing.







The strange thing is we left Corpus, on the beach, where we were having junk weather came here and the weather has been awesome.








This was two days before I left.



This is two days after I left. This really isn't that bad, it is just a long way from home.

I decided to start blogging because it is easier than calling everyone who wonders and filling them all in on the same thing.

So if you're wondering just keep watching here, if you don't care I will stop(I'm not as good as Heather...this takes me a long time).

Texas is too big


Well it happened again...I had to go back work.


I had to go back to work in Kansas.


Although I like going new places, getting there in one day is the worst idea ever. It took forever!!!!!!


I love Texas, but leaving it takes too long.


Interesting side note we drove through Anson, Texas.
