Getting nearer to turn the next page.

At two weeks before blast off.
Starting to look at the weather and the road map,more and more.
If we can get back up north we might have a computer type job in the works.
Sounds good but this far in the game I know to take it cool, heck we might end up in the Yukon or in Arizona, or under a bridge.
Jeannie is a trooper, her feet are long gone rotten, her teeth also.
We along with other troopers keep slugging down the 10 hour Amazon marathons.
Dustymop is always stretching the chain upon our arrival back to camp.
We hit the sack just after the dinner food is wolfed down and get up at 4:30am and do it all over again.
Might have extra overtime this Sunday, I know I will do it, the girls have laundry and replenishing food stock chores so that is their ticket out of the Amazon routine.
Looks like fuel is going up to $3 or more, so all the time working will be for gas.
The season has really been mild, in the 50's now, maybe 10 nights at freezing (15 degrees at most)... the locals say it has been much more nasty at this time in the past.
So, in two weeks if God willing we will look for a break in the winter and jump for a slot back up north to Boise and/or Sandpoint.

Above taken tonight after dinner, Dusty and I walked about a mile towards Coffeyville for this shot taken from the new highway going in, of the Oil works on the north edge of Coffeyville.
