Anyone surprised that Oil/Gas companies have no manners?

This is what greeted us at the end of the driveway bright and early January 1st. Apparently were ringing in the New Year with explosions. Not the fireworks kind either.

I haven't been impressed with these guys since the start. Less than a week after the water test, they showed up. Opened whatever gates they wanted to. Rode Quads across the field. And gave us absolutely no warning they were there. It was the dogs that alerted me actually.

This time again. We didn't even get the courtesy of a quick knock on the door.

"Hi, we're here"

Nope too much to ask.

We left for the afternoon, so I never figured out if I could actually hear the explosions or not.

But they better hope they don't want to drill on our land.

There will be some mighty big changes before they are allowed back here again.
