The neighbors cows came around today eating everything in sight, first time they have been around in over a week. Another group of ten came by in the afternoon.

The electric problem persisted and we called for maintenance, answer is another generator set was delivered this afternoon. Outside preparation for move tomorrow. Stowing the white water hose, dumping the black tank and stowing the hose. Putting the propane bottle away.

Today is very important, my wife’s birthday but it is also move day as Buster is moving to another gate for the oil company. The total miles will be low, under ten miles basically on the same paved road.

I did some outside preparations last night for our move this morning, about nine-thirty our guy came to move the generator trailer and we finished making Buster ready to move to the new location. A big nine mile trip not enough time to rest behind the steering wheel between the pack up and we have the setup at the new location.

After setting Buster and cleaning our self’s up we were off to town of Big Spring, I had called in a prescription last night and that was ready for pick up. As I got to the pharmacy window they were finishing closing for lunch, maybe Friday. We pushed on to Midland for lunch/dinner. We also never leave a town with out some grocery shopping on our way home.

Buster's new gate

Arriving back at Buster’s new location two sand trucks followed soon after us and unloaded then left the location, and quite all night. As you can see in the picture Buster and the well pad are close together.
