[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 936374, member: 18945"] Yeah, we're close to fighting the same fight for sure. It's pretty easy to take land from the piney wood forest, but a whole lot harder to prevent the forest from taking it back. Then factor in the invasives and it becomes a full time job. I'll get some more recent pics up later, but I'll try these 2 arial images from 2008-2009. Before and after shots. The funny looking area is a Y shaped pond system and it's bare ground--everything else you see is the tops of big pines.

I've marked in where my house currently is I believe. 100' to the left of the house, the Natonal Forest begins. They are my only real neighbor, but they don't give me any hassle.
