Well, the pad is now frack ready, and we’re in hurry-up-and-wait mode.

As it stands right now, they should start rigging down at the other frack sometime late Friday and moving in here on Saturday.

Maybe.

If they have a problem finishing up there then everything will get pushed back a couple of days. No one came in at all night, and I only had 4 vehicles today, so really quiet. And nice.

Tonight we went to Whataburger again. Did I mentioned that it’s only 3 minutes from our RV park? Nice and convenient.

And delicious as usual.

Night before last we went back to La Belle Tavola again, this time for their pizza. When we were there the first time we saw a steady line of take-out pizzas going out the door so we decided to check it out.

As usual we got the big 18” version with Canadian Bacon, Pepperoni, Hamburger, Italian Sausage, and Mushrooms.

Very cheesy and delicious.

And we had plenty for leftovers, including last night’s dinner and today’s lunch.



When posted the Dawn at the Frack photo a couple of days ago,

DAwn On The Frack

several people asked me what the two big towers were. And the answer is, they’re Sandcastles. That’s their company name, and what everyone calls them.

Sandcastles Frack

They’re used to hold the frack sand before it’s injected in the wells. As you can tell from this photo, they’re actually trailers themselves, complete with wheels.

They’re towed in by a semi and then stood on end. Then they’re pre-loaded with sand so they’re all ready to go at start-up.



Should be another really slow day tomorrow. The calm before the storm.
