Enjoy the hills, Andy

Posted on March 5, 2015 | 3 Comments

Andy, of MyOldRV, is finally out of the gate-guard business down near Cotulla. His frackin’ gig of two years and seven months has succumbed to low oil and gas prices. Good for us drivers but not for oil companies and such.

Andy smartly took off for the western Hill Country, for a little vacating. He’s pointedly not saying exactly where. It’s pretty out there, and will be more so once the bluebonnets start unfolding. When this damn cold weather loosens its grip.

    Thanks Dick,

    I returned the earlier part of the week and was struck by the lack of activity and the abject squalor of the land disturbed in pursuit of the petro-dollar. The Eagle Ford always looks its’ worse after a hard rain.

    Umm. I doubt it’s as bad as strip mining. But at least strip miners make an effort to reclaim the land.

    No worries. The cheap oil of today wouldn’t continue forever, you can bet on it.
