About 3 acres. Trust me , I wasn't complaining, was just stating that I wasn't big enough to have tides!
This one is only a shade over an acre.

Well Gee Wiz, I have no idea... never lived in NC.
Whoops got my GPS backwards, might be from watching to much Andy Griffith, and yes I am, guess I'm just not used to swimming snakes, if I did see one of those they wouldn't swimming long.......
We have them in Maine, although they aren't poisonous. I still will pass on swimming with them though.
Just for you, Old Path... girl catching water snakes - Bing video
