| | So, I am not supposed to be home, but I am.
Drilling is a dangerous business, and this was proven to me and my crew yesterday.
We were tripping into the hole with 3/4" air pipe to do a well development. As the last piece went in, something slipped on the top of the pipe, and the last 20' section fell all 20 feet, severing a finger of our head driller. It was one of the most surreal and crazy things I've ever seen. It was terrible. I tried to help, but there was little I could do.
I can't get the moment out of my head. At last word, he was doing fine, and he was with a hand specialist.
Be careful out there.
