Thanks Russel

Of course I want as big as I can afford, but I need to just get out there and get a better feel for acreage. I understand that an acre is approximately 75% of a football field, but land isn't cut up in nice easy to see rectangles. Once I can find a balance between acreage and cost I can delve into the specifics.

I'm just not too familiar with rural land and specifically the purchase procedures.

Thanks for the input.
