Pawhuskan Duane Easley found an abandoned dog out on one of his oil leases almost two years ago. He named the dog Raymond, after the lease, which has since been sold. Just weeks after Duane took Ryamond in, Duane was diagnoses with diabetes. Raymond has been a calming and humorous source for Duane ever since. The two ride together from lease to lease throughout the work day, keeping each other company.
I took this portrait one morning (at 7 a.m.) before they started their work day.
