What’s on my back

       
For almost half the year, I live in a lovely two story brick colonial with my wonderful wife and son. I have a garage full of tools, a library full of books and a bar full of beer. To make things all the better, I even have a beautiful, sexy woman that loves to cook and clean for me. Who could ask for anything more?
                However, the other half of the year, I live out of a backpack on oil rigs. I never know where, when or what I will be eating next or where I will be sleeping. Everything that half of my life owns is in that backpack, clothes, hygiene, laptop, and maybe a book or two. No beer, no woman. So needless to say, that backpack is very important to me. It might not be much, but it is my other home.
