    Serious... I have wondered if one might experience remorse while making the transition from here to there?

    Current situation: sitting in Baton Rouge and can’t unload because of lightning warnings. The safety nazi’s say we all might die. The workers are cool with sitting under an awning shooting the ####. I, however have #### to do. Back home we load and unload in the middle of hurricanes. I don’t think oil field guys are as tuff as the like to pretend.

    Elmer, I am not sure, but it seems there is something about keeping one end of the chain kinda stretched on the ground. Damp place is a plus.
    Now them straps[s, I never had any experience with. Might get some with a copper tracer for this type work.

    I’m thinking it will hit one of the dozen cranes or light poles or the 50’ tall building long before it’s going to hit a track hoe.
