Rob; from the pictures it looks like you have about 150' on each side (about 1/2 acre). For rough numbers a 1/4 acre would be 100' square and an acre 200' feet square. Pace it and you shouldn't be too far off.

You should let it dry out a bit before you dig back into it. Otherwise you really will break down the texture of the soil. For the same reason I like fall plowing. The frost breaks up the furrows over winter. They dry quick in the spring and only next a good discing to make a decent seed bed.
