If you have a couple of acres, that's a field, why not put cattle on it
or a horse?


A horse would starve on one of the 5 acre McMansions around here without
supplemental feed.


100 acres. 95 under cultivation (plus another 100 acres a few miles
away), 2 barns, a driving shed and house in the other 5 acres, plus
the "lane" or "driveway" - with manicured lawnsaround the building,
and beside the lane out to the road.. Used to run 40+ dairy cattle
plus another20+ young cattle but the folks have retired from farming.
Their daughter and her husband are leaving the military and moving
"home" to take over the farm, so there will be about 1300 square feet
less grass when the"garden suite" (second home) is planted for the old
folks. Lots of very beautifull flower gardens, trees and shrubs as
well (they are very active in the local horticultural society)


Snob :-P
