| People wonder why we're so nervous.
The last time we experienced nearby drilling activity the following photos show some of the results. These are the events we managed to capture on film. We try to film each event when we are able, because people (including officials in Denver) find it so hard to believe. |

| An emission plume on Christmas Eve,
2005, as seen from our property.

This is the same plume seen on the left as it began to be carried by wind currents. The plume blew over our home and around the bad eagle perched on the tree. We had not seen any eagles in the area except this one since the disruption in 2003 which was associated with the construction of the Arbaney pad within a hundred yards or so of a traditional nesting site. We formally protested the construction of a pad so near a endangered raptor's nesting site, but the industrial activity was exempted. To see a larger version of this picture click here. [12-24-05] |

| A site about a mile from our home [03-09-04]. This earth-shaking 'kick' at the Arbaney well site was felt at our kitchen sink. The photo on the homepage is from this event. | Our beaver pond bubbling during the height
of Divide Creek Seep. The dynamics of bubbling is much harder to discern
from a distance in a still photograph. [05-16-04] |

| A close-up of some of the bubbling in
our beaver pond as reflected above. This well-established vent was about the
size of a quarter. The tests from our pond were determined by testing
authorities to be biogenic (that is originating from a biologic source, like
the decomposition of organic matter). [05-16-04] |
