I give a lot of respect to people who just make art to make art, using the world as their canvas. Its ironic seeing something beautiful on this canvas (it's a crude oil tanker rail road car). And to all the haters, its done in oil chalk so relax.</div>

Well, lots have happened since I've been on last. We've had the impending apocalypse, Xmas, the New Year, and of course the recent "true ND weather". Last winter was mild to say the least, this morning at 6 am I think it was -28 F plus the wind it was nearing -50 F, mother nature's way of telling us we don' belong here :)</div>

Living in a semi-truck has some obvious disadvantages, one thing is the food. Often cold can of soup, no fresh produce to speak of, and granola bars. I bought a mini electric frying pan and viola! Cooked Breakie!</div>

Notice the curve in the metal of this drilling rig, that isn't good. While the crew was taking the rig down it collapsed. I'm just happy it wasn't my fault, someone's getting fired for sure !!</div>

The band, Men at Work, once famously sung, "I come from a land down under." Well, my versions would go something like, "I come from the land of ice, snow and six months of winter." Certainly not as catchy of a tune but what can you do? North Dakota winters will certainly weed out the weak, 63 degrees one day the following day is freezing rain and 6-8 inches of snow and 2 days later it was -10 F with the wind chill :(</div>
