KSL has some articles too, but they're not as detailed. The Deseret News has an article here that is pretty good: http://www.deseretnews.com/article/700040818/EPA-monitors-oil-cleanup-efforts.html I’ve found the most detailed information at the Salt Lake Tribune.

It is actually what woke me up. Do you have any idea where we can get real information? You know, I woke up the last two mornings smelling something really sulpher/chemical like.

I see a lot of trucks around Liberty Park, but the place still reeks of gas. There are reports of the oil reaching Farmington Bay, but now Chevron claims it's unrelated to the spill! I'm going to try and make it up to Farmington Bay this weekend to see for myself. I didn't go to Pioneer Park last weekend because it was so rainy. But I really hope to go this weekend. I've heard great things! Bobbi, I don’t understand why people in SLC aren’t more upset. I see a lot of trucks around Liberty Park, but the place still reeks of gas.

I find it odd that there isn't more recent information on the internet. As far as farmer's markets, have you been to the Saturday market in Pioneer Park? It opened last Saturday. It's a wonderful market that I look forward to going to each year. Wish we had a year round market like Seattle and other places!

Unlike you, I just don't have the stomach to search for the pictures. I have accidentally stumbled upon a few, and they still haunt me. It is just heartbreaking. I hear you.
