    Alot more sand cans here in Dallas Pike
    But no Oakley trks. More local outfits that bought sand cans instead of more dry vans... plus I saw some rig parts moving around this time also

    2 people I know that have been laid off for several weeks were called back last week.
    Also was in Port Fourchon last week and everyone was very optimistic. Better spirits than I have seen them over the past year. Hopefully we are ready to turn the corner and put this rough patch behind us.

    Just heard on the news this morning that they think they discovered a new oil field in TX that is second only to Saudi Arabia.

    I can't wait for the day North America tells the Middle East we don't want their oil anymore.

    Texas Permian is ramping back up, had a company that laid me off over a year ago call me this morning about running sand again. But they are offering 4$/HR less than before.
    I think it is almost a "bubble" right now, companies are gearing up in hopes Trump will say to drill everything everywhere.

    I picked up old oil pipe in Colorado yesterday to bring to a feedlot in Nebraska and the people at the pipe yard told me they are suddenly busy as hell and clearing out old pipe to make room for new .
