the first one is a custom built drill rig the nodwell is the support vehicle they've been drilling a lot of wells lately they can punch a hole trhough 400 feet of bedrock in just a couple days the drillers also do mineral exploration the drill carrier has a series 60 detroit whic should be about 425 hp which makes it one powerful drill.

You must be getting this suff in by ships now. Does your fuel price drop in the summer?

yes the first 2 barges made it in with freight but fuel will be late this year as of jan 1 we now have to sell ulsd for motor fuel so the tanks had to be drained and cleaned befoore the new ulsd product can be put back in. because of the ulsd change we are expecting a price increace for motor fuel.

made a trip up the road yeserday too deliver some fuel the rain has started too turn stuff green so i snapped some pics of the country side of the same areas i was in in the winter so the summer and winter differences can be seen also we loaded the fuel on to a morooko tracked vehicle and a nodwell trailer for the trip into the mine looking at that rig i thaught it would be the ideal krusty recovery vehicle.
