Drilled many wells just north of Mentone in Blowout Alley along the Pecos. Funny story about going to Mentone one very dark winter night looking for some dinner after a casing and cement job. Wonderful steak. Maybe I was just hungry. Nice husband and wife that ran a little store there fixed dinner and joined me. Good company nearly 50 years ago.
Sounds like a great story!
Classic Texas oil field story.
A Texas singer songwriter could make a great song out of that.
