My Last Full Day in the Desert

My last day in the desert was fairly ordinary to start with. We got Haliberton out to do my first acid wash since I been here. (it didn't work)

During the acid job the boys had some time to put this fine sign together. Mark(the guy in the sign) talked about quitting the rigs for 8 months to go sell houses. He finally put his notice in and been away for 2 months. Hes coming back tomorrow. I guess he didn't like it. The sign is a little welcome back. I wish I could be there to see his face.


At the end of the day the boys wanted to get a crew photo. Kind of a going away present for me. I thought it was a nice.

Then their true colors came out. It was a good going away present. 20 liters of sticky sports drink. I will miss them. They are all good value, good freinds, good people and will be missed. I had a lot of laughs with them.

The Best Christmas Present Ever

Ok....It may not be the best Christmas present ever but I did enjoy it. Mark did a fine job making me some green Kool Aid. The Kraft Dinner was awsome. I wish I could say that I shared but I did not. My only selfesh act all Christmas season.

This is the weather we had to put up with when we got back from our trip. There has been major flooding in southern Queensland.
