More of the story

After the 3 months we were really tired. So headed to an Escapees rv co-op park by Carlsbad NM. where we stayed until the oil field called us back. This was over 2 months.  While there we begin to see how that this life could work. We met lots of  people that had been doing this for years. They helped us understand how this might work for us. Also while here we met a couple that we are still Friends with today. Bob and Beth White. 

We were there for the holidays and on Christmas eve morning, the Whites came to door and ask if we would like to be workampersh  at  the Ranch. The couple they had coming canceled. We agreed to until the Gate Guards call us back. That happened 1-14-2014

While at the Ranch decided to trade vehicles. We had headed out with a Ford Excape, this had to be on a dollie to be towed. Trade for a F150 crew cab. The dollie was a litte small but worked if you didn't turn too sharp. Planned to fix to flat tow later.

As we went back to gate guarding, after 2 weeks decided this was not for us. As we were deciding what to do next. Our new friends the Whites called and invited us to join them at Big Bend National Park for a week. Which we did. This was the begining of many great times with them.

The pictures are the gate we guarded and us and the Whites at Big Bend.
