The State Gave Me One Year To Put Water On 8.4 Acres — Then I Had To Destroy His Ditch To Do It

A wealthy land investor stepped onto seventy-eight-year-old Glenna Stallcup's dry pasture and offered a lowball $71,000 for her 8.4-acre field. He only knew to make the offer because the state water resources division had published a public notice: Glenna had exactly one year to place beneficial irrigation water on her parcel or permanently forfeit senior water rights dating back eighty years. Having left an official warning unread for weeks following her husband's death, Glenna faces a desperate race against time. To preserve the land's value and family legacy, she must take the heartbreaking step of excavating her late husband's historic irrigation ditch to restore functional water flow across her fields.
