Our First Gate this Season 2011

OK , Here goes my try at this blogger deal.  I have enjoyed following a couple of different ones this last year and finally decided I need to try it myself.
Sunday morning, 11-06-11, Roger our boss for Gate Guard Services came over and ask "how far south are you guys willing to go"  Jack and I both looked at each other with ??'s, and ask how far are you talking about?  He replied and said Laredo, Tx. which is a town we have always enjoyed in the past so after he gave us a brief idea as to where and how close to town we said ok.
Monday morning, 11-07-11 at 5am???? we are ready to travel from Carrizo Springs to Laredo.   Brandon, our feerless leader is to lead us down and get us set up and he does.  We arrived about 8:30-9:00 after making  4 and 1/2 miles into about 24, turning around and around.  Needless to say  though we did make it and we were finally set up by about 11:00.
We have now been here a week today so this blog may be short and have a few pics as the well drilling rig just started pulling in to day.
