That info is something you needed to ask before you bought.
That area may need a well dug.
There is a water supply tower near there but I don't know if the Hanging Rock area is supplied by it.
Also some wells are going dry with the drought.
I own property in the valley below.

.
Slow to realize the impact that a walmart has on a small town.

Maybe raze the mobile homes where the illegals live and make a community recreation complex for all the slow Tennesseans that are jobless in the area.

no it was a profitable drive inn movie theater. The owner said he made money and was not in the red, but was offered a price he could not refuse. The kids will be a little more bored this summer. This was a place that the highschool kids could go and show off their trucks and cars all summer. They would even take their tag along little brothers and sisters. Good clean fun.

It is now a Walgreen's Drugstore. There already is a drugstore or two in town even in the SuperWalmart. Looks more like Florida every day.

I know the course is for sale and whether I build or not depends on what happens to the golf course.
Anyone know anything about it?

Maybe the one in Dayton but thats been there for quite some time. They are in need of workers after they laid off the Tennesseans and hired illegals. I heard they let the illegals go and are in a pickle. Its a tough job that Americans that I personaly know enjoy having even with the pay cut they recieved a few years ago.

Brow lots are nice in the summer. You know the Floridiot mountain folk around here by the damage on their fenders. Off-camber mountain roads slick with ice send most transplants back to sunny paradise. Please stay out of my lane, even though their is no newly painted yellow line and few road signs(keeps taxes low) it does not mean one way your way. Keep your eyes on the road and hands on the wheel. Head on collisions happen on blind curves and hills around here. Watch out for washed out roads and loose cattle in road. Tractors, mule wagons, and horses are allowed to share the highways . Why the rush anyhow? It use to be that you would travel to the big city once a month to stock up on items. Now people want things they see on television right now. The rural lifestyle has always been about stocking up for lean times. If your not a good planner than your crops and livestock will fail. What is to be learn from this hurried instant gratification consumer society lifestyle? That I want more now? At any cost to your neighbor. As long as I got mine and lots of it as long as someone else suffers for it and not me. That is what is learned.
