for sure.. MAJOR expansion.

more stuff in the ground (citrus everywhere). proper area for propagation. plan is to turn the land into a food forest. eventually might get some chickens, a horse (or 2) and maybe even some cattle (additionally for tax purposes). ranch life progression about to get into motion.

going to be nuts. can't wait.

pc man!
