That is a monumental amount of turf. snip huh? 5000sq ft is .114 acres. One acres is 43,560 square feet. Thats not a huge area in my world. maybe in Manhattan or some place. Well, my house is 2500 square feet and there are four large bedrooms, a huge livingroom, giant kitchen and two full baths with walk in closets in every room. So, double that and you have the equivalent of a house with eight bedrooms, two livingrooms, two giant kitchens, four full bathrooms and many huge closets. That's a lot of turf to manage for a homeowner. At this point, I'm thinking about the electric bill. Cooling 5000 square feet could cost a lot. -- Mark Lloyd http://notstupid.laughingsquid.com "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.
