New Photos and Oil is discovered at well West of the FLDS

I have updated website: http://web.sccn2.net/flds/

to include aerial views of new oil as it is first coming into mud pit and views from a variety of angles of the compound.

If you would like more detailed photos, just email me and I will send them to you. All are royalty free and public domain.

I added about ten more photos - Pay particular attention to the photo “Original Workforce Trailers”. Click to enlarge the photo then look in the bushes in the upper right hand corner of photo. It is not uncommon to see the women and children hiding in the bushes.

These are LARGE photos. Only enlarge if you have high speed connectivity.

enjoy...

Pilot;

I want you to know that I have a great deal of respect for you. The way that you dont mud-sling when you talk about the FLDS shows how classy you are. I have never seen you dis them in any way. Your reporting is plain, simple, FACTUAL, and un-opinionated. This is the kind of information that we can trust! Thanks, and keep up the good work!

To Roadrunner:

I do not know the answer to your question, but I can bet no one not FLDS would be there. I base my assumptions on several things:

•First and foremost – the site is sacred. No gentile would be allowed in the compound
•I doubt that anyone could be as professional and gifted a craftsman as the people in the Eldorado compound
•The compound has more than enough expertise in a variety of fields from carpentry to medicine at the compound.

If they did need out side help it may be for Bountiful or CC/Hildale not from the gentile realm.

To New Kid on the Blog: Thank you for your kind words

I digitally re-mastered some of the photos and expanded the rest to full screen for your viewing pleasure.

Enjoy...

No. You have to be "lifted up" in order to get in.

Hey, Pilot heard you met the caretaker of the YFZ Ranch Merrill Jessop. What is your opinion of him.

How do you know I met Merrill? I did meet him, but how do you know?

I liked the man. Please forgive above deletions. I misspelled too many words and resubmitted then deleted wrong one. Now I am trying again!

I like Merril Jessop. I do not think that he has hurt anyone. I am glad you liked him.

You obviously don't know Merril. Sure, he comes off like a gentleman but under that affable exterior is a full-blown PRICK!

He's no different than any other shark in the tank.

Take my word for it, I know very, very well.

I know Merril a little more than you think. He is a great person.

Reply to Onthestreet:
This mass posting and copying of long threads from other blogs is exactly the reason you lost your priviliges here as a regular contributor. You are welcome to continue posting comments but please keep them under control. I know that you think you make sense, and on rare occassions you do, but only rarely. I've had numerous requests from other bloggers to yet again prohibit annonymous posts because of the way you, and one or two others, tend to dominate discussions. I value your input and have resisted that idea and I am willing to start you a new thread if you like, but I won't repost old comments, especially from other boards or blogs. That is just silly. Also, I would remind you that you started your own blog and that you may run it any way you wish.

Keep your hat on street: keep sweet. count your self lucky you have your own web page. What is up with the swearing. That is not making us look good. Do you represent our prophet or are you bogus. He said keep sweet no matter what. I like a lot of what you say, but we must keep our eye on the goal. I say, "Keep your hat on" get you a texas hat if it will make you feel better, because texans do tend to have manner's. And manner's sure can not hurt any of us any.

Anonymous said...

And by the way, it is not the Texan's posting the filth and lies about us. It is the same small group that can stir any one up to hate. ALL PEOPLE HAVE TROUBLE. YET THEY TARGET US. GET YOU A TEXAN HAT STREET. WE WILL WALK THE LANE TOGETHER AND SMELL THE ROSES. MAYBE WE CAN HEAL A HEART OR TWO.

I think it's easy to say things you shouldn't - a lot of us have. I should learn to delete my posts after I write a long rambling one (yeah - I admit I ramble).

Where is your blog Street?

I was very impressed by the photos. But it did make me wonder about "privacy rights" in relation to aerial photographs. (or satellite imagery or digital cameras everywhere including on cell phones.) Is it good or bad? I bet it keeps YFZ people on their toes. (good?)

You know what David? The admin shows a lot of personal class in the way that he handles things, especially naughty little Davids that swear and throw temper fits! I think you should show a little grattitude and appriciation for Admi putting up with you. It's a good thing that I dont have Admin powers, or none of your posts would ever make it onto this blog!

be nice, k, David =)

The eyes can not trespass in legal terms, the law never specified of enhanced technology. A Cop stops a car and see's an open container and its allowed in the arrest. I don't think the expectation of privacy on the ground would go to far, plus satelite imagery does these photo's all the time. The clarity was really good, you could nearly read the license plate on that White vehicle.

On the street:
Please double click on the title at the top of the thread. You will see a small trash can by your name. Go ahead and click on it and it will delete the post.

Good work Street, now keep going theres still a whole lot more of your trash scattered around here.

Obstructionist said...

Shoot, I haven't downloaded all of his replies yet! Got to hurry......

Anonymous said...

No, you don't delve into Trash, you just scatter it far and abroad to the winds. It would really help if you would just gather up all the trash that spews forth from your twisted mind and put it INTO the trash, instead of dumping it!

ATAR_i said...

I noticed you calling my compassion evil. Is that what you mean?

Calling compassion (a good thing) evil.

and calling warren (a bad man) good.

Was that oil on the YFZ ranch or the neighbors?

Neighbors.

I have updated the website again with some photos shot Sunday at 8:30. Nothing going on but I was going north and decided to shoot while flying over. Nice shots of the front of temple.

Hey, Pilot!

Is it just me, or are there mostly white vehicles, with a few tans and golds mixed in? You said to notice the black ones, but it looks like there are predominently white to me...??

ThePilot said...

Actually the big vehicles for personnel movement have always tended to be black with dark tinted windows; usually vans or 4 doors with camper shells.

Well total depth is 7,104 in the Ellenburger structure. There is no oil in the pits, that was an additive. Compleation pipe was on location prior to logging giving a hint that the well is good. Wells to the west produce in the Wolfcamp formation.
