I have a friend who is a full-timer and does this very thing. He's been at it for nearly 10 years, and really likes it too.

So what exactly does it entail to be an "oilfield gate"? and is that 135 per day?

I live close to south Texas near the largest oil boom in Odessa, might be interesting.

There's a tab for information on gate guarding

He gets so many questions he also created a forum

Cyndi. . .Thanks for the link to MyOldRV. Great resource! I've been reading through some of his old posts and he covers a variety of issues I'd never thought about.

And for those of us living in "the Great State of", his advice for surviving Texas heat and nature (rattlers and tarantulas) is a bonus.
