I told Barb....looks like he is...."doing it in the woods"...you know what I mean...ha ha and he was here he is caught in the act. Now … [Read more...]

A New Listing with Awesome Views and Great Access
Plaza de la Vista Tract 1 - 35 Acres - $85,900 Many of the original families that settled Southern Colorado came from the Spanish settlements south of Colorado in what we now call New Mexico.

Info on Colorado Mineral Rights
Adobe Gold Properties is one of the few if not only real estate companies in Southern Colorado, and maybe Colorado, who has not only created a web page to discuss the subject of Mineral Rights but who also notes on all of their listing if the property has any Mineral Rights available with the purchase. And we have been doing this online since about 2002-2003 when the realization of the local Oil and Gas well drilling impacts on property ownership in Las Animas and Huerfano Counties starting becoming … [Read more...]

In Colorado you can not collect rain water…
Did you know that you are not allowed to collect your rain water in Colorado? It's true. During these times when water is so precious especially out west where it is so arid and typically we don't get that much rain fall you would think that an excellent way to supplement your water would be by collecting your rain water. But in Colorado if you collect your rain water it could get you in trouble with the law. I recently noticed an article in Popular Mechanics that I thought you might also find … [Read more...]
