John Urquhart had grandchildren in mind when he bought 230 acres in a small neighborhood in rural Alabama.
Urquhart still works, but his wife, Gina, retired from the nearby veterans’ hospital in Montgomery. They built a barndominium, stocked ponds with bass and bream, marked out a field for dove hunting and left space next door for their daughter to construct her own house. Driving along his property line as a neighbor baled hay, Urquhart mused about teaching his grandsons to plant grain or raise calves.
