The other day, I went over the fence to my neighbor's pasture to recover a young calf that slipped through the fence. (Why I didn't call my neighbor is a completely different story and we won't get into that.)
When I spotted the calf, I stopped walking and waited for her to decide what she wanted to do. But - this is not what this post is about.
When I looked down, I saw an open well. It was at least 20 feet deep and about 3 feet in diameter. It was only about 25 yards from my fence line. All I could think of at the moment was, I wonder if my cell phone would have worked down there?
After I got back I thought about calling my neighbor, but I know he knows it is there. He's dozed every tree off of it, disc it, and shredded it several times. That, and he'd probably ask me why I was on his place.
Can anyone refer me to Texas Statue about open abandoned wells?
