Jan;(posted 9629 days ago)My wife and I bought our place in about the same conditions you describe. My advice would be to talk to any neighbors about water and the county extension office. Also find out about the cost of having a new well dug in that area, that should give you and idea of how difficult it would be to find more water. One thing about putting a lot of labor into a new place is that it truly becomes part of you. Our family has put so much of themselves into our little place in the woods that it's a big part of the family now. God Bless Jim
