Every hitch this year, we have been paired with at least one other crew. We are ALWAYS a super crew. This has ups and downs. Sometimes it’s fun, sometimes it’s awkward, sometimes we just do our own thing. However, the last 2 hitches we have been with Nez Fuels. They have become our BESTIES!!! Our crews get along really well, and we have found our super awesome super crew.
The energy of our two crews together is so chaotic sometimes, but somehow it works. We work harder, get more done, and laugh constantly. Some of our best memories of Nez Fuels include listening to their chant, stretch circle together, sharing skills, and our love for food.
Because both crews LOVE food, we decided to join together and have a potluck. Everyone brought something, and honestly, we had way too much food. We had 20 burgers and 24 brats for 11 people. We had Rice Crispies, the best sweet corn I’ve ever had (lots of Iowa folk), chips, sparkling water, and more.
We won’t get to work with Nez Fuels again this year, which is really sad, but we will always be grateful to them for welcoming us in and having so much fun together. We miss you, Nez Fuels!
