Confusing property rights story.
Valued at $28,000, they 'sold' a 55" Black Walnut they thought was theirs for $2,000 to a timber cutter who sold it for $10,000, but the parks office who says they owned it says it will cost $100,000 to replace. Later in the article it says they didn't get any money from the 'sale'. Also says timber company was cleared because of a contract that says a survey was done, but they apparently never asked to see the survey.
Couple claims it's all about the parks office wanting their land.
