Defending 3.8 Billion Years of Organic EvolutionSM
Longhorn Ranch
Las Animas County, Colorado
|
I love Las Animas County! It's the largest of Colorado's 64 counties and is located about
200 miles due south of the Denver Metro area. In my never-ending search for the
perfect homestead I stumbled across Longhorn Ranch and a number of other rural
communities throughout the county. Below are a few photos of things and places
I've found interesting down there. Some of the things that attract me to Longhorn
Ranch, and other areas around the county, are their relative remoteness, wide-open spaces
and clear skies. Also, not only are they far away from Denver and other big cities, but they have no running
water, no electricity, and no telephone service (unless you're high enough on a
hill to reach a cellular telephone tower!)! What could be better?!

Don't forget to pay your taxes! This is a sample of a very small
bit of mineral rights in Las Animas County. Totalling 10 acres
the taxes were only $0.78 (78 cents!) for all of tax year 2006!!
