“1 acre is a lot of land to take care of, trust me if u come from row house philly it’s big, real big.”

Yep. When I bought my first house, it came with FIVE acres of land (in New Jersey!). It was only after I moved in that I realized that every foot of them was covered in ticks - not to mention I needed to buy a rider mower to take care of the lawn.

I quickly began feeling very nostalgic for that 30 x 30 foot fenced in “back yard” in back of our old rental condo... (sigh).

I bought a two acre spot and had never had anything larger than a front lawn. Got a zero turn riding mower and that was the best thing about owning that piece of property.
