How can 5 acres be a ranch...lol? The ranches I do work on here in Texas are over 40,000 acres. 5 acres is more like a large lawn to me...lol.

Go to the Western Horseman website (www.westernhorseman.com ? maybe use a search engine). Their back issues should be available, and awhile back they had an article on constructing ranchette buildings.

I used to live in Nebraska. We had five acres and two horses. Called a ranchette. It was okay for the kids. Forty thousand acres is too big.
