Dear Sam, Eva, Callie, Michael and Joel,
We had so much fun the other day we begged your dad to take us to work again with him. So yesterday we went on another adventure, and once again we had so much fun, we wish you all could be here with us.
So here’s some pictures of yesterdays adventures. Your dad sure knows how to start a day because he took us to sit down breakfast and we had ham and French toast with lots of butter and syrup .
So next we started up the mountain, it’s funny when he says that because we’re not actually driving straight up the side of a mountain, it’s more like we’re winding up between the mountains. Anyway he said we gain about 2000 feet of elevation, which is almost half a mile up. So here’s a picture of the valley where town is and we are just starting to go up. Notice the mountains in the background with snow on them.
So about half way up Spike had to get out and tinkle. So once he finished your dad let us climb in some sage brush. I was kind of prickly and we got stuck, so your dad had to get us out. We think we’ll go tree climbing with Joel some time so we can learn how to not get stuck.
We saw some funny signs on the way up. We thought this sign was funny. They put this up because there are deer all over the place up here. Your dad almost hit one coming down the mountain last night. He was probably going too fast and had to slam on the brakes pretty hard. I’m glad he didn’t hit the deer.
This is a sign we don’t like. H2S is Hydrogen Sulfide, which can be present if gas leaks from the pipeline or the well sites.
Anyway we got to work right away. Your dad didn’t drink coffee because of lent. So here’s the show where we talk shop. Actually here’s where your dad complains about being away from home.
And two hours later when that got old we went outside for awhile and stepped on frozen puddle ice crunchies.
After awhile of that we decided to go north and get some work done. So we got out the laptop, opened up the project and typed for about an hour.
Next we inspected the cabinet for the 34th time for about an hour. There are 6 cabinets out here so that took the rest of the day.
Well that was our day. I told your dad to put this picture in of his Jeep. He likes driving in the mud. He actually had to clean the side windows off so it was safe to drive.
Your dad says we’re coming home today - yeaahhhh. It sure will be nice. We had fun up here but we miss you and can’t wait to get home to someone who doesn’t snore through the night.
Love you, XOXOXO, see you soon
Spots, Lucky and Spike
