Texas Twins Fulfill Dream Jobs As Zoological Specialists At SeaWorld

Twin brothers in Texas became OBSESSED with SeaWorld San Antonio as little kids. They'd visit EVERY Sunday with their parents, and even attended the weeklong summer camps they offered.

When they graduated high school, they wanted to stay close to Sea World, so they both attended the University of Texas at San Antonio

Now the twins are 23, they're out of college, and both have their dream jobs, working full-time at SeaWorld as "senior zoological specialists."

Westin Fenton told Fox News, "I couldn’t imagine my life without SeaWorld, and I think my only goal and my only hope right now is to give someone that feeling that I had as a kid,"

His brother Jakob added, "I’m just eternally grateful walking up to work. There’s always a big smile on my face because we're truly living the dream we’ve always wanted and that’s special,"

Today, Westin Fenton works with the animal ambassador team as a senior zoological specialist. Jakob is a senior zoological specialist at Orca Stadium within SeaWorld.

How cool would it be to not only realize your life-long dream, but to do it with your twin brother! Also, you get to work at a place that brings so much joy to so many people!

I have my opinions on keeping these majestic animals in an oversized fish tank, but that's not really what we're talking about here.

As Jakob said in the YouTube video below, "follow your heart, dream big, and do what makes you happy!"

The Somewhat Small Towns of the Texas Panhandle

Say what now? Somewhat small?

That's right. These are the towns that seem massive when compared to teensy weensie two-stoplight towns like Pringle (30) or Kerrick (25), but they're definitely not on the same level as cities like White Deer or Panhandle....much less Amarillo.

Buckle up! We've got a places to go and towns to see! These populations are well over 100, but way less than 1000.

All aboard the Somewhat Small Texas Panhandle Towns tour!
