Awesome pics. I know alot of the reason we have been so busy as well as our sister companies in Iowa is due to the natural disasters and such that have washed out roads and such over the last year. Someones expense is someones gain.

Love the pics of the WV slopes gasfield. Been on them, and that's actually tame compared to some in WV. The drill rigs I used to operate were totally unbalanced, anytime you got on a grade with them, they required a winch from a dozer to move them. I always said; if I'm going to be hooked to a winch, I want the operator to be from coal country, because those boys have a big pair in their Levi's. :D
