Howdy!🖐️ I'm turning 320 acres of Texas desert wasteland into a desert forest in the MOST isolated spot in Texas!

My name is Shaun! I live in Texas and I run my own business integrating software systems. And now I'm buying 320 acres of West Texas wasteland?!?

You might ask, “Why buy this land?” I want a challenge.

One of the first properties that came up matched absolutely everything I was looking for.

-,The land is almost completely barren.
-,Monsoon rains bring water at the height of summer, when it’s most needed.
- It’s under $250 an acre
- A wash in the middle looks like it has potential to capture massive amounts of water

I don't know if this project will work out for me or not, but one thing is for sure: it will be interesting.

Do you want to mail me something? Please use the address below. But, please let me know to expect some mail.
