In my ideal life I would just be some eyes perched on feet, capable of walking in the woods, through nature, up hills and down. Endlessly taking it all in as I go. That's all. That's all I want in life anymore. And nap time. Which isn't asking for much. It's also not giving much back to the world either. So today I need to get busy and start ( Read more... )

Back in the old oil boom days the Oil Creek valley and all around this county the land was slathered in spilled oil. Mother Nature has repaired that on her own by now and these old oil barrels and machinery in the woods are all that is left to show of it.

Are you close to Titusville?

I think they were still doing a lot of fracking in yr area up to a couple of years ago when the bottom fell out of the oil market. (The bottom is back but I'm not sure they've started fracking again.)

Yes, we live about 20 miles away from Titusville. Oil Creek flows from above Titusville down to Oil City.

There was fracking going on around here a few years ago but they've moved on to different places farther south and west now.
