Update
So I am pretty well settled in. Now I am getting used to things a little. I have taken a few pictures of the things around. I sure you can see them here. I recently found out that as far as we know this is the largest jobsite on the planet at this time. There are currently over 11,000 people working on this site. And this is only the first phase of three. Also there are a few other jobs starting up that are of the same scale and maybe even a little bigger. Suncor, another refinery close by has just constructed an airport on site as well. They too are getting ready to start a major expansion. There is a good chance that I will be working here for quite some time. Anyway I will post some of my pictures.
This picture is of one of the doors going out of the camp that I am in. Camp Athabaska. And it is named that because it is right beside the Athabaska river. And yes they are talking about grizzly bears!
