It was at an asphalt plant and I made good money, usually around $850-1000/week, depending on overtime, etc.

Two years have gone by at this point.So I go up at the end of winter to find my neighbor has redone their landscaping, including planting numerous trees, half of them clearly beyond his line (the line he himself defined to me).

@Michael Plante Florida has some crazy real estate laws but if you're looking for negotiation leverage, and you still have outs where you can get your earnest money back, I'd cancel the contract and let them come back to you.

In mine I would go with Kodak/Xerox/Wegmans, possibly the Delphi plant.

The farmer knows that balance during the planting season will not serve his family. 

Sometime in 2012 a coworker planted the real estate investment seed in me again and mentioned that his family invests in small multifamily properties where there were multiple renters which covered the mortgage and expenses with positive cashflow.

The strangest thing I have found was Marijuana Plants growing in the back yard.

To keep people from climbing the fence, plant Rosa Rugosa at the base of the fence.

Where does the water go after the waste water treatment plant??

I planted some trees in a seasonal stream for the next generation.
