It’s been raining for the last few days. We need to fill propane today. Deb is working the early shift at the office today so I get to do the propane fill by myself. It’s a sloppy job in the mud unhooking the rig to drive to the propane fill down by the office. After the fill up I get the rig back to our camp and parked by my self. It’s a lot easer parking and leveling with two people.

We are beginning to use less propane. The weather is warming up a bit. The average high temperature here for May has been 64º and the average low 43º.  It has been 26 days since the last fill-up. We where averaging only 10 to 12 days over the winter between fills. The propane budget should improve over the next few months. Higher temperatures and a drop in price will help. We get our propane at cost here. The last fill cost about $2.00 a gallon we have been paying just under $3.50.
