too far for me to drive to try and help you relieve your population pressure, then. (although I was up by park Rapids for the holidays)
i completely understand the whole exurbia thing - 1/2 mile from me a guy broke up his 35 acre hayfield into housing tracts. 3-5 acres each with "no fence/no unrestrained pets/no large animals" stipulated in the contracts! I suspect the last of the 8 cookie cutter houses will go up this spring.
Another one bought an 80 acre hayfield 1 1/2 mile from me and started to advertise his 16 five acre plots when the county hit him with a "sorry, smallest lot you can cut out is 20" restriction. (apparently he missed out on the fact it was in a "conservation district" - whew!)
