clairz December 2, 2010 at 1:05 pm Such clear skies. This photo reminds me of our drives across the High Plains from Clovis to Roswell. They had a couple of oil wells there, too. Happy Skywatching, Yogi!

Lois December 2, 2010 at 3:43 pm Not much chance of a devastating oil spill here I guess. It looks a little lonely!
Tulsa Gentleman December 2, 2010 at 3:51 pm My former father-in-law bought a piece of land that had a couple of old pumpers on it. He thereafter referred to himself as an “oil maggot”.
Sylvia K December 2, 2010 at 3:59 pm Wow! That one brings back memories of my youth in west Texas!!! Terrific shot for the day! Sylvia
Impulsive Addict December 2, 2010 at 4:33 pm Love the pic but I got super excited when it said Skywatch FRIDAY. But then I realized that it’s not Friday. Boo. I wish I owned a couple of those on my land. The ones that still pump. A girl can wish, Yogi. Don’t you judge me.
Oklahoma Granny December 2, 2010 at 5:51 pm Nothing says Oklahoma more than photos like this one. Great job!
EG Wow December 2, 2010 at 9:04 pm Wow! I haven’t seen such a pure blue sky in a long while. This looks so refreshing to me.
Photo Cache December 2, 2010 at 9:45 pm very nice. why is that machine numbered, are there more than one? have a lovely week. Ewok
Sharon's Mum Anne December 2, 2010 at 10:35 pm How lovely to see a blue sky after our snow-laden ones. Winter is starting very, very early in the UK. Not a good sign for the coming winter months.
Sharon's Mum Anne December 2, 2010 at 10:37 pm Yogi, I too am now the proud owner of a Kindle, kindly bought for my birthday by daughter Sharon. Anything you really recommend?
Jack and Joann December 2, 2010 at 11:18 pm That photo says OKLAHOMA in caps! Great post! Awww, I can remember the ’50s when we thought we would always have oil gushing in Oklahoma and Texas.
DrillerAA09 December 3, 2010 at 1:18 am OK Granny is absolutely right. This is Oklahoma defined in a single photo. Well done Yogi!
Y. Ikeda December 3, 2010 at 10:28 am Great composition. I like that gadget. Small or big, new or old, it does not matter to me!Have a wonderful weekend.
Christina December 4, 2010 at 7:13 pm That’s a familiar scene in Oklahoma; and the reason I moved here!
Janie December 5, 2010 at 4:05 pm We see a lot of these. Ours are usually painted tan or green, though – much more environmentally correct, don’t you think?

Happy Skywatching, Yogi!
really pretty!
Is that abandoned?
Great pic.
…and up through the ground came a bubblin crude!
Cool shot against the blue sky.
