Fairplay/South Park, CO. This little town was loosely used as a model for the cartoon South Park (we didn't meet Eric Cartman). We spoke to a realtor there and got another handful of MLS listings to check out. We drove down dirt roads for the rest of the day, trying to find which lots are for sale. When buying a house, you go to an address with a photo. When looking to buy land, you're given vague directions and trying to find iron pins in the ground. There have been many times that we never found the lot for sale, but we didn't like the area for one reason or another and just left.
