Our house sits on an 8.5 acre piece carved out of the 108 acres my wife and her sister inherited from their parents. 33 acres of tillable ground rented to the neighbor just about pays the real eastate taxes. The rest is wooded and starting to get badly overgrown with multiflora roses and grape vines. I am slowly getting them killed off. I have the 1962 901 Ford, bush hog, back blade, slip scoop, post hole digger,six foot finish mower, and an old Ford sickle bar mower that my father inlaw did not sell when he quit farming. I added a 1050 cub cadet, and a 500 sportsman Polaris to the mix and am about to pick up a sprayer to tow behind the Polaris to spray the roses. I am in the process of rebuilding the fences, and want to plant a few hundred red and white oaks. Working midnights at the county jail and mowing 5 acres around the house pretty well takes up most of my time but keeps me mostly out of trouble.
