“These are the times that try men's souls.” | Ross and those guys off that Rockport water system have it made other than the price of water system. I thought the original price was over 5 million, but engineers messed up and needed more pumps on the system. The same engineers came and give us a ball park bid of 10 million about 7 years ago for one canal in Idaho. They couldn't even tell me how many lift pumps would be needed to go 9 miles.
Our water in Summit County is high run off water, some stored. Not enough acres to put any of our water in pipe. The sad fact is Ross and those guys water will all go to housing in a few years. I'm figuring less than 15 years will be no farming, all houses in his area.
No wild cow milking at Stone. Its wild horse riding. I'll sign you up, and save you a seat on 5th wheel trailer to watch rodeo. My boys have finally gotten smart enough to give it up.
