Have welder will travel

I suggest posting your resume on Careerbuilder. People are hiring like crazy and you should be able to land a job quickly so you can move to Houston and stay employed until you develop the contacts to go out on your own.

There seems to be a lot of pipeline work going on and I have seen scores of railcar loads of pipe come through the local UP yard.

Truthfully, I haven't seen the same number of welding trucks that I remember from the late '60s and '70s, but it's probably worth looking into.
