Turns out no one has ever survayed the area due to the hills and woods, and he is trying to apprise it and just needs a good estimate. I am going to try with the scale pic I put up to find out some more. THought I would post just incase I come up empty.

Is that to scale? If so, time to start breaking out the rulers.
