After we left California and headed for Texas we had some "issues" with our new Cedar Creek RV. Won't bore you with the details, but it took a little longer to get to Fort Worth than we expected. Then we left the RV at a dealer for fixin' while we went to Illinois and Minnesota. Our home was good as new when we got back to pick it up. THEN we went immediately to our job site near Tilden TX, about 70 miles south of San Antonio, but completely OFF the grid. No cell phone, no internet, no power, etc. We rely on a diesel generator for power and a 300 gallon water tank for water. The job is a breeze, but the living conditions are, well, remote. 50 miles to the nearest shopping, which is where I am at the moment because the internet is here.

Easy work, good pay. If any of our RV friends would like a similar job just let us know and we'll put you in touch with the company.

We're surrounded by wildlife so take extra precauctions when we take the dogs out, especially at night.

We no longer have to pick up the doggy-do because we have an abundance of Dung Beetles. You can't believe how efficient they are. How cool is that?

This is "home". Don't know how long we'll be here, but we have to be someplace. Everything is provided for us, plus GOOD pay.

We thought we had A resident road runner, but as it turns out we have no less than SIX of them. They hunt around and under our RV all the time. No fear of us - they almost seem friendly.

This little guy crawled across my compass when I was setting up the satellite dish. Got close enough to see he is missing a leg. Still moved pretty well in spit of only having seven.

OK, that's all for now have to get the shopping done and get back to the oil well.
