we SHOULD BE td...that's 'total depth'....end of drilling for this hole......here before noon...then circulate....come outta the ho with the drill string.....that's 19000 feet of 5" pipe that weighs 19 pounds/foot.......and then run casing in---steel pipe that lines the ho.....then cement to make sure it stays where ya put it....then this ho is done

that will likely be thursday.......
