We Recycle As this 2020 year comes to a close, our futures may be uncertain (as they always are). There is one thing I know for sure, our Drilling Industry across this nation and the world, will remain strong as it has for years gone by. Drilling nowadays is somewhat easier, and we tend to forget how hard it was to dig and twist and pound the way through dirt, rock, clay ~ across and through mountains and streams, to build a future for generations to come. All one would have to do is go watch the films of how that Hoover Dam, Mount Rushmore, and most recently that enormous undertaking of the Crazy Horse Monument to see how difficult it was “back in the day”. They were strong, very strong people, with visions and dreams of a better life, just as you are today. Don’t ever let go of your visions and dreams. Stay strong. Remember, the future depends on drilling. TheWWDRTeam certainly enjoyed hosting ourFirst AnnualWorldWideDownHome DrillFest™ at the historic Welk Resort in Branson this past October. From all accounts, everyone had a great time, and that is why we had this event; to give everyone who wanted to join in on the camaraderie of good friends, business acquaintances from the past, and meet new ones that each of us will remember going into the New Year and beyond. As for the upcoming New Year 2021 , we have great plans for theSecond AnnualWorldWide DownHome DrillFest™ and look forward to see many more smiling faces. Take a sneak peak at dates and photos on Page 76 of this issue - save the date and make plans to join theWWDR Team! May each of you have a very Merry Christmas, and your New Year bring you and your families prosperity. If there is any way we may be of assistance to you, please feel free to call 850-547-0102 to chat. We all love to hear from you.
