Clay is finally home!!! We are soooo excited. Wade LOVES his daddy so much. It is so awesome to see them together. I am so glad to have him back. Clay was offshore installing a new rig out in the Gulf of Mexico for a month and a half, and before that he was in Corpus Christi for about 4 months getting the rig ready to sail. He has been home for a week now and we are all still adjusting to each other again. We are just glad to have everything back to normal. I have already put him to work here. Hanging things on the walls, mowing the lawn, painting the kitchen.
Here are a few pictures of Clay hard at work out there in the deep blue sea.
Here he is on the deck of the ship working with the riggers. (actually doing some manual labor)
Here he is on the bridge overseeing many operations. This is where he said he spent most of his time.
On the deck of the ship with the rig (Thunderhawk) behind him.
This is the ship he was on for the month and a half he was out there.
And this is Thunderhawk!!! INSTALLED!!! YAY! Clay has literally been working on this project since before Wade as born. Now onto the next one.

That's pretty amazing work. Is he going to be working on more projects like this, long term?
Yes, this is pretty much what he has been doing since graduation. Some rigs are smaller than others, but he has been installing offshore oil platforms for 7 years now. Hopefully one day he will stay in the office while other guys go offshore and report back to him.
