Elderly neighbor passed away, a very good neighbor family had rented his 160 acres since the 80s, maybe before.
They couldn't swing buying the whole 160 acres in this ag ecconomy, so they asked if we wanted to buy some?

If we had t bought any, it would have gone to auction, and I'm sure someone with. 4000 or 40,000 acres would be new neighbors.....
