I lived down the block about a mile and had 2/3 acre. I watch some commercials and see a small ranch with hundreds of acre. so how big is your back yard?
Growing up on a farm in Sullivan County New York, my back yard was 28 acres which included fields, a pond and woods. It was the best way to grow up!! After I was married and we had 2 children, our back yard was 3/4s of an acre. Now we live in a home that sits on about a quarter of an acre. The house is just around 1300 Sq Ft.
