No duke energy
The orange will be for telephone or cable tv not sure who the supplier is there

Windstream. Makes sense. I assumed it meant "no waste." I think the lot won't perk. It went up for auction last year. Somebody bought it for too much money. Now he's trying to sell it for way too much money. I'm trying to lowball just to keep it an empty lot. Maybe put a shop on it or something.

Is this that land beside your house at the end of the street? Thought that was a farm?

I don't know diddly about it. I do know as a kid we used to get cans of it and mess with our down the road asshole neighbors when they were out. Paint "cutoff" in the gravel with an arrow toward their meter base, or "pump point" in the grass between the road and thier pool. Maybe that's why they were assholes?...nope they fired the first shots.



EDIT: just thought about it lol, we put a big ass snapper and a half dozen or so decent sized water snakes in that pool one night, man I'm so going to hell....
