When I was 10 years old we moved into a big 7,000 sq ft old plantation home that needed to be restored. The yard still had the big circle driveway out front and beyond that a large lot where sharecroppers homes once were. Still had a standing train depot from the 1800s in the yard where a railroad used to run next to the property.

Anyways yard was grown up about 2 ft tall when we started renovation on the house. It was 5 acres. My dad went to wal mart bought a 100 dollar push mower and told me “get to work son”

Fun times
