Me too me too!

My wife and I are hoping to build a house soon, and it will be on some of
her family's land--in the town ETJ.  Coming from the country I am afraid I
am gonna get an "education."  We are technically in an
"agricultural/residential" area so I am hoping my shop will be considered
agricultural.  (IF there's enough money to build one.  Every time we go see
the draftsman, the house grows by 200 more square feet!!)
