Do you keep in touch with the new owner? maryjane JAN 29, 12:51 PM quote Originally posted by 82-T/A [At Work]: Do you keep in touch with the new owner? Yes. I visited him a few minutes Thanksgiving 2022 and went by there Christmas week 2023 and one of my other neighbors keeps me informed of his 'activities'.. He has done a lot of building, expanded my little 16x16 shop to 16x30 built one of those 1/2round fabric buildings, probably 40'l x 32 wide, a big chicken coop (in a low lying area) a green house where my garden was (again in a low area) and hauled a huge amount of equipment thru the yard into the pasture behind the house which has, even before the big rain, turned the whole yard into a muddy awful mess. He attempted to buy or lease a strip of land along one side of the guy immediately to the North to build another road into his property, which I advised that landowner against because it would involve building up a strip which would impede water drainage off his place and he agreed it was a bad idea. Not to mention new guy would be bringing heavy truck loads across the pond dam, which is a BIG no no. He had already brought so many heavy loads down the power line road, that he has broken down the hard pan and made it a terrible mess as of late 2022 and had to have a lot of crushed limestone hauled in to 1/2 ass repair that, but also brought in trememdous amount of sand to try to buld up the yard, which is a terrible way to do it, as wet sand just turns to nastiness in heavy rains and driving back and forth over it. This, is his first experience with high water. I don't think it got into my old shop, but surely got into some of his other outbuildings, but he was aptly warned, as I explained to him and showed him how high the water would get in just a normal annual high river event, as well as showing him the high water marks from Hurricane harvey. Water is now back down to normal levels according to NWS.gov advanced hydrograph. . I don't think the water got as high as was projected, but it most certainly came across the pasture from the pond at least 1/2 way to my old shop.
