Road trip

I'm getting out of the office today. I'm going to measure an oil rig out near Sundry, Alberta.

It's beautiful country out there...foot hill of the Rocky Mountains. I'll stop by home and grab my camera & gear. Hopefully I'll get some nice shots.

Have fun Mike! Its funny, the Rockies are right out my window, I guess if I followed em long enough I could find you

What are you measuring the rig for? For some strange reason I hope it's for curtains

Actually...curtains are a pretty close guess.

My company makes fabric shelters & tarps. On an oil rig we make tarps to hang around areas to keep out the wind/cold and to keep heat in.

There were a few nice views on the way there but it was too cloudy to get any good shots of the mountains. I did take a few shots of some elk. I'll post them when I get a chance.
