"The Gate" Batesville, Texas 32 degrees and mostly sunny to 69 degrees and mostly sunny. A cold crisp morning that warmed early with the sunrise into a nice day.

The work crew started lining up before eight o’clock for the nine o’clock start time. Some did not park close to the side and had to have some move for a crude oil truck to go ahead in to load oil at another site, as inside this gate there are four sites with crude oil wells. Two sites have "flowback" crew and these are producing more than the third site and the fourth site has two wells and the workover rig there in preparation for installing pumpjacks on the wells. A full moon rising on one side and sunset on the other side.
