We drilled through casing most of the day with the mill bit and stiff rods, until the bit wouldn't cut any more. We won't know for sure if we were successful in our attempt to drill through the side of the casing until tomorrow, when we finish tripping out and retrieving the bit. If necessary, we can continue drilling with another mill bit that will arrive tomorrow morning.
