looking out there from TN, this is quite interesting.
we have so much water that "water rights" is a
strange phrase. -- j

p.s. my family went to the west coast from
here in '66 in a pickup truck, camping all
the way. . in AZ, we camped in a site with a
well. . the owner reported that the well was
2300 feet deep. . good water! -- j

    Isn't this exactly the same part of Montana that awebb visited recently and we were talking about on a different thread?

    If the feds had enforced the immigration laws, Georgia's population would be about 1 million less than it is and Tennessee about 300,000 less. Neither is particularly a magnet for immigration. You don't talk to foreigners overseas who are desperate to live in GA or TN.

    yup. . the line, as surveyed, is the state line, we
    say. . Georgia is trying to say that the mistakes
    inherent in an old survey should be updated
    in their favor. . it's all because lake lanier is too
    small to take care of hotlanta, these days. -- j

    This is a huge land grab by the feds through the tribe and orchestrated by Agenda 21. The Flathead Reservation is an open rez, and has been for over 100years. Tribal members living on tribal trust land pay no property tax. 2 years ago all tribal members in the book received $10,000 tax free. They get paid to attend the college there on the rez. Some tribal members are laying claim to waters at originate in Canada. This is the u.n. the feds, the state and the tribe against private land owners and irrigators. It's chilling. I will add that Kerr dam and all the water is part of Bonneville, and the power company that is run by the tribe all have G plates on their vehicles.

    John interestingly enough, your state has been in a dispute with Georgia stretching back to their founding over water rights. If Georgia gets their way your state could look a little different in the future.

    Indians - the archetypical moocher society (in my opinion). Their ancestors would be disappointed.
