I think part of the problem with the size right now is it is hard for me to visualize a 2 acre pond versus a 5 acre pond. Sitting in the dirt with a barren wasteland makes scale seem....challenging.
I will keep on keepin on and try to find a good lot. 5 acres still sounds better visually BUT if it isnt practical then I think 2 1-2 acre pond would suit me just fine.
