George I guess my memory isn't so bad after all. Thanks for looking up the record rainfalls and remembering Blackwell.
My service was nothing like yours but the coldest I ever was....on constant maneuvers for two weeks in the snow...wore everything I had...slept, ate, sh#% in the snow...constantly setting up and then breaking down and on the move again, night and day. Feet never got warm.
My brother in-law, a geo-physics� was also in oil & gas exploration and at Midland, TX for a long time then lived at Katy and Rock Port and ended his career as a consultant in India.
Hey John, we could tell some stories - right?
We called a �geo-physics� DOODLEBUGGERS back in the good ole days��
I�m an Emeritus member of The Society of Exploration Geophysicists,
Lived in Houston, Midland, Tulsa, back to Houston, and settled in Plano��after a couple of years in the field - Rockport was my favorite - good fishin��.
Most folks don�t know that Texas Instrument parent company was Geophysical Service Inc.
My career spanned the digital era and now �frackin��most fun working for myself as O&G Exploration Consultant.
Thanks for the memories,
George
