Living in the wrong country

[bless 'em all]

One of the guys here. His family own a 10000 acre ranch in Texas with a huge house. $5m.

Around here that buys you a 5 bedroomed place on 1/4 acre!!!

Yeah, my in-laws have a ranch/farm set-up in Texas. Fruit, Pecan Nuts & Lavender are all grown and sold locally.

The best bit is the planning laws (or lack of) outside of city limits. They fancied a newer house overlooking the lake, so picked the site, drove a bulldozer down the road, turned right into the tree-line and kept going 'till they got to the lake.

"That's the drive sorted."

Three months later they're sitting on the porch overlooking the lake with G&T's in hand.

Can't do that here .....
