Moving Day!

No...I am not moving, but my brother, Glenn, or as we call him "Bubba" is. He just got a job in Pennsylvania. He changed career paths recently and decided that he wanted to become a mud engineer. If your like me your thinking "what is a mud engineer?" I have heard him explain it several times and I think I sort of get it now. He will be working on an oil rig drilling site and he is the guy, in a trailer, that determines how much mud "drilling fluid" is needed for the drill bit to keep drilling through different rock and layers of the Earth.

He just graduated from mud school in Houston and we were thinking that he would get a job on the rig where he was trained in Corpus Christi,Texas. Who knew they drilled for oil In Pennsylvania!! Anyway, I am really excited for him because it's a great opportunity, but he will be a long way from home. He came home last week to spend some time with family and pack his things in a U-Haul to move. My dad is going with him and driving the U-Haul behind him all the way to Pennsylvania and then flying home. My mom and I were hoping to go, but the timing wasn't right...if only school let out a week earlier!! I am still trying to get over that, but hopefully we can go visit this summer.

Dad and Glenn with the U-Haul all loaded and ready to go!

Bye Glenn!! We will miss you!
