Jeff Foxworthy, Eat Your Heart Out


Jeff Foxworthy, eat your heart out!
OK, this not really a redneck mansion. It is a rig camp on the North Slope used to house workers for its assigned rig. The rigs are moved from one location to the next for exploration or reworking old well sites. They move often and when they do the workers follow them with these self contained camps. It is interesting to note that while these camps are on the move, either the night or day shift workers will in fact be on board sleeping.

Just Another Alaska Sunrise



This photo was taken today at about 09:23. The temp was a muggy minus 30. This time of year we see this almost daily and the sunsets can be pretty spectacular as well.
