New plants I put in back in October all wilted due to lack of water.

Yes John, another good approach, people that couldn't sell and ended up renting to move, estate deals, see who retires at the plant maybe the spouse has been taking care of the properties, tie landlords to those events in life that motivate them to sell, otherwise you're spinning your wheels. :)

Warren Buffet once said something along the lines of farmers need not understand the bio-chemistry of the photosynthesis process to grow corn, nor do they need to check the corn 14 times a day, they need only to plant it and take reasonable care to ensure it's in an environment where it can grow.

If youre trying to get it done under 20K it all adds up really quick.If the garage doesnt pan out and this is in a smaller town where mobile homes are permitted, you could plant a decent one on the lot for near the 20K and get $500 -$600 with the garage.

We also are adding land to our orchards and so a great deal of money is required to plant hundreds of trees on each lot we buy.

I would limit the exterior work to pressure washing the exterior and painting the front door in a warm earth tone color.Maybe you could dress up the front porch area with a few potted plants, and 2 cherry stained wooden chairs with throw pillows or something.

Might have to plants a few hops in the garden.

Thanks @Marc Littmann The only thing I can think the orange-red glow could be is from the Xcel peaking power plant in Frederick around WCR 19 just north of Hwy 52.

Need to be within approximately 30 minutes of the power plant down there.

Damaged a watermelon plant that my husband was growing with care for 2 months (stepped on it) by trespassing the easement boundaries (the watermelon plant was OUTSIDE of the easement area).2.
