It has been sometime since I last posted as things have been really busy! Our company is doing a lot of work in the Marcellus shale which has kept me out of town a lot. Additionally, my wife and I had our first son in March, Jacob Matthew! (picture attached)
The cool thing about working the gas fields of PA is the amount of BRAND new Caterpillar equipment. Please see the photos below of the current job we are on. Brand new cat 349 with three brand new 40 ton rock trucks! The caterpillar powered atlas copco drills are our machines which we use to drill blast holes to break the rock.
