The realtor sent me a copy of the survey yesterday.

All the corners were shown along with descriptions of what, exactly, is marking the corners.

Turns out, they found and let be existing old pipes that delineate property lines.  They did not cover them with paint or put ribbons around them to let someone like - me - be able to find them.  So, to find the property corners, I have to search for them. I don't recall seeing any old pipes sticking up out of the ground anywhere - but then again, I wasn't looking for them.  

So today, if I feel like it - it's starting to get late - I may go over there and start searching those pipes out. At least at the front of the property and at the gas well site.  I don't know if I feel like getting all bloody and cut up going through the rear of the property looking for those pipes.  

I"m not exactly motivated today, I put in nearly 16 hours yesterday and that kind of took it out of me.  Allegedly I have a run tomorrow to some mysterious location - that is how the dispatcher worded it - but she never sent the run.  I'm wishy washy on that one, but I need the money so I am hoping she sends it to me today.  

Regardless, at least I now know there are, indeed, markers at the corners at least.  Doesn't much help me with the property lines between the markers.  I am going to find the end of the barbed fence on the north east side of the property and paint something there - whatever sticks out - bright orange and then see if I can see it from the front corner marker.  

There isn't much else.  The pond project, I think I"m going to put the fish in there today whenever they get back from Walmart.  

Nothing back yet about the boat and now I need to find a place to fix the 4 wheeler. Whatever that "mechanic" did to it, he just messed the thing up worse.

With that, I bid you a good day.
