SIKSUKR was correct, the Governor bought his new parcel from the complaining apple orchard farmer in Hopkinton, not Exeter, New Hampshire.

However, the actual estimated price tag of the Governor's new home is closer to five million dollars. The Governor purchased an additional eight acres on top of several acres he had previously bought from the farmer. The Governor's building permit calls for a home of 11,000 square feet, a detached 3 car garage, a 20 by 40 swimming pool with cabana and a tennis court. The farmer now says he can probably put the rest of the orchard in some kind of conservation trust....but he was previously looking to sub-divide prior to the Governor's additional land purchase and his new assesed value.

Like Paul Harvey always says.....and now for the rest of the story!
