So far in BFE the internet tubes don't reach

So this is gonna be way shorter then intended since I am doing it from my phone. As my fb and g+ friends know the Telfer village wireless doesn't reach my room in the back of the camp, and I don't have a cat5 to plug in with. My phone is my only source of internet at the moment.

Anyway just a few thoughts on Telfer. The mine is massive. The technical team for the surface operation alone has more people then the entire pro staff at Kemmerer. It is also very diverse. While mostly Aussies, there are guys from the UK, Zambia, New Zealand, Paula New Guinea, Ghana, and Canada to name just a few. It is a good group though and my boss rules. Hopefully 12 hour days don't get too old.

So anyway life moves on down under. A longer and more complete post will follow shortly when internets are more readily available.

  1. I should have probably noted that you needed to bring a Cat 5 cable, that's often the rule in the more austere areas I've been to (not many, but enough)
