    Thanks. Heading to west Texas next month to my guest man camp. Was in the Navy so it’s not a problem for me.

    So you went back to the oilfields? I'm waiting for my hazmat background and the test before I apply. Was thinking of West Texas since I'm in AZ. Those camps are similar to what I stayed in overseas on deployments.

    Oilfield is busy in west tex and ND my company here in Ohio has 15 sand trailers sitting around. Time to move on and make some money. See you on the flip Ill be in Williston on the 21st I will let you know what it is up here. Trying to get into crude hauling seems like they need drivers BAD bringing up lots of tier 2 wells in the Bakken since the price is up and those wells arent on the line.

      I'm not up there yet. I was planning for this spring but I'm probably going to wait until next spring. I've been researching for over a year and there are companies that will reimburse you for your own apartment. I'm a CDL driver so things may be different if you go to be a hand instead of driving.
