THE OTHER SIDE OF ME

Yes, i know that is a Hannah Montana song. It fits though!


Did you know... I am Gas Trash. Not because of some really bad chili the night before. But I contract for CEO Operating every other week and fill in when I am needed. I wo"man" injection wells. This is where the water that is extracted with the gas is pushed back into the ground. And I love to do it. Baylen says that it is just an escape, but any way it comes, I enjoy it. I have to fill water tanks and change filters.
I have to wear coveralls and all the gear. I can't be boring with just a normal hard hat. So Bay hooked me up with this beauty and I of course add to it. (Just like the unders) No boring for me!


Cute Huh! It was about a week to do it all and then it rubbed off really fast.


Did you know... I like to hunt? (not for the week, there are pictures)
The monday after christmas we were visiting in Rangely. Mark and Pam were going to take me hunting Tuesday morning because I had drawn out for an area 10 cow tag. Well at 4:00 Mark called up an said lets go out for an evening hunt. I was great with this, because I had gotten a little braggy to Derek that I would have an elk by monday night. (nanny nanny boo) But since I wasn't hunting until tuesday he said I would eat my words! Mark and Pam picked me up at 4:30 and we headed up the Blue Mountain road. We went on for a little while got out and scouted around then drove somemore. There were not many fresh tracks and it was getting dark. We came around a little bend in the road and right on the side of the hill, there they were, 5 cows. I jumped out and aimed for one but when I pulled the trigger I realized my safety was on. This was good, I would have hit 2. (again!) So, I reaimed and knocked this cow down in one shot! We were home with the cow gutted and hung by 6:30! Thanks Dad for letting me use the "DEATH RAY" my ears are still ringing. So here is my great picture (If you are squeemish don't look) I look like the redneck that I am at heart. Mullett included!
YEE HAW!
Next will be the hillbilly band!
