I got $50, Lets go! - Original Message From: David To: texascavers@texascavers.com Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2008 5:28:47 AM Subject: [Texascavers] cave purchasing related Concho Ranch about 29 miles south of Ozona was recently sold.

That would only buy about 20 acres in West Texas. Right?

Re: [Texascavers] cave purchasing related
I'm home for a couple of hours to work. We do not have internet at camp & I'm not home 'til July. Can someone check the website and see what cave that might be? Obviously someone has named a smaller part of a much larger ranch (lots of "ranchette" activity down there). That's around where Kincaid Cave is and I'm sure hoping that's not it, as I had an agreement with one of the owners to let me know if they were ever going to divide that parcel and sell the one with the cave on it. If that section has been subdivided, perhaps there are other caves to buy? The area is full of 'em. Appreciate it.
