And I know very well what 4 1/2 acres is, my back yard is 5 acres of lawn,
takes a good part of two days to mow, I'd hate to think how much work it
would be to tend to it in crops, would take like six families of illegals.
Yesterday for the first time this season it dried out enough that I was able
to mow my 4 acre back field for the first time, used to be a hay field and
it was already in seed, that takes a full day's labor every week just to mow
and keep the forest from growing back.

Gotta start somewhe

I planned to start string trimming today but it looks like rain... I sure
hope not as I plan to till my veggie garden this weekend and I need it to
dry out.




You have a very nice view off your back deck and no weeds.
