Little plot of land.

On Sunday, we drove to the MD/PA border to see a 100 acre plot of land that my parents own. It’s about 90 minutes from our house – it’s completely undeveloped – and we haven’t been in a while. My parents are going to have the trees harvested from the land in the next few years so it’s kind of nice to see it before that happens. I haven’t seen it in about 10 years. My parents have owned this for about 40 years. I remember coming up as a child and being pretty bored about the entire thing, but yesterday, I was a little enchanted by it. And realizing that 100 acres square is less than 1/4 mile on each side, so…not enormous. I could explore it pretty easily, running through it and the skills I have from orienteering would allow me to map it with landmarks.
