Sum of the interior angles of a closed polygon is N[umber of sides] - 2 * 180, so you're looking for an even 360 degrees of interior angles enclosing your 6-sided lot, which could be of help if you end up having to "figure out" where to look for your pins.
Most monuments of the last 100 years have some iron in them, usually rebar but it could be a buggy axle or a gun barrel or something even stranger. Amateur metal detectors kinda suck because they are too slow to scan quickly, but can still help if you go slow. Your pins can be above, flush, or below ground. Try to keep any tape measure straight and horizontal, as horizontal distances are typically what is shown on deeds/plats. 100' tape 1.4' off line = 0.01' difference in taped distance, same with tape not level...
You can prob find a more legible copy of your plat at your county GIS. You may be able to take the info on bearings and draw your parcel to scale from the legal description in your deed.
When folks were arguing with KSL about the route of the Olympic Valley to Alpine across the White Wolf property and close to the Granite Chief Wilderness they went back to the old surveys which reference prominent landmarks like large boulders etc. Except that no one could find any of the landmarks. Apparently the surveying was done in a bar in a Truckee hotel, with minimal if any field work.
Thanks. I got that part covered. It's the massive amount of trees, shrubs, debris, wood pile, etc that are in the way. I don't really need to find them right now, and I'm not clearing all that just for giggles.Quote:

Her and her partner just moved from Seattle. So I hear the door and head out to look out the kitchen window and see nothing, reach into my shorts to scratch my ballz as I’m looking out the dining room window, I lock eyes with the new neighbor. Open the door and walk out into the entryway, neither one of us extended hands. Cool she wants to introduce herself. Excellent, welcome to the neighborhood. She then ask’s to exchange contact info. My wife and I, value our privacy, no Facebook, twitter, no bullshit, it’s so freaking nice. She wants to get to know us and have us over for tea, I told her straight-up, we have lived here for 20 years and have never been in anyones yard let alone house, and that we were never coming over for tea and that I hade no reason to exchange contact info with her. What say you?
i think you should have just told them to fuck off
You're just a grumpy bitch.
As a fellow new hampsherite - sounds somewhat standard. Doesn't mean you aren't a dick though. Knowing your neighbors can be handy when you lock yourself out and need a ladder to get in an unlocked window or want someone to make sure a storm didn't cave in your roof. It costs very little to not be a curmudgeon.Quote:

I don’t know dude, I’m actually easy-going. I can’t stand small talk or going out to dinner or anything that has to do with sitting and talking. I will gladly go on a four hour bike ride and talk your ear off. Is it because I started smoking weed at 14? I hate doing adult shit. I mean yeah, I’m kinda of a spaz, doesn’t make me a bad guy though. They’re from fucking Seattle and somehow they ended up next door to me in a podunk cow town with a population of 3,000.
She just needed an excuse while putting a tracking device on your vehicle. Good luck finding it.
You don’t have to agree to tea but having at least a semi cordial relationship is beneficial for plenty of reasons already mentioned.
My new hood in NH is like the exact opposite, we have pot locks and the neighbors kids free range in my yard, and mine will to eventually once he can talk and I send him over to annoy someone else. I really like all this personally but was surprised about it given how NH typically is.
So maybe split the difference between stink planing and telling them to go fuck themselves and being best friends and see how it feels. You might like it when they need to bail your ass out of a jam someday.
No way a pair of old ladies are going to bale me out of a jam, it’s just not logical. I have a plow guy, who also delivers cord-wood, known him for 20 years, guy is old school New Hampshire, he can figure anything out in a pinch. All good, guy. I have riding and skiing buddies in town. We have no kids, we like it like this, wicked mellow and whatnot.
If you’re constantly having to insist to everybody that you’re actually a really nice guy, maybe you just might be an asshole…
That is such a tired line of thinking, don’t you have some day-drinking to do?
You sound jealous.
It’s so easy to be fat, drunk and stoopid. Keep on
and tell us again how in real life you’re not actually an asshole…
go on now.
Always on my jock. Anyhow, neighbors, amirite?
Maybe they're in the witness protection program?Quote:

You would give some rando who just moved from the other side of the country your contact info? Yeah, no fucking way.
Increasing paranoia is one symptom of dementia.
Umm, more like I don’t care for nosy neighbors, but yeah whatever.
they are obviously affluent enough to live in your hood and you would know where they live
why do you have a phone # if you never give it out to people who live next door who might call and say something is happening to your house that you might be interested in knowing, mean while Amirit was able to call you from microsoft support in bangalore ?
last winter if i had the dumbass neighbors ph# I could have called her to tell her its -7 and her front door is wide open
What if you get your penis stuck in a Pivot heel piece and need her help?
What a piece of shit move on your part ! I'm a pretty unsocial grumpy fuck but I have all my neighbor's numbers and have received/given assistance with texts/calls.Quote:

Seasons must be changing up in the north country, Butters is taking on all comers right on time.
Someone knock on the door and give him a pumpkin spice latte.
Dude, I’m all about that Spice life! Laird’s Superfood Pumkin Spice creamer in my coffee and fresh made, King Arthur Pumpkin Spice muffin with breakfast.
Woot-Woot!
just like you didnt have to say what you said and have them think they have moved in next to a miserable cuntQuote:

but you insist you are not a bad guy ?
so what is a bad guy, what is a good guy ?
Just trying to get a feel on neighbors is all, you guys are all buddy-buddy with the neighbors? Fuck that’s weird!
No but I don't tell people in so many words to fuck off cuz there are so many things in life one does not have to say
Or, even better. Maybe get a lay of the land when you move from 3,000 miles away from a huge metropolis to a shitheel cowtown before knocking on my door and asking for my contact info.
I guess when you leave town for a few days and a pipe bursts with a river coming out of your house you'll be all good cause you have home owners insurance rather than having your neighbor shut off your water and give you a courtesy call ?Quote:

I have bike/ski buddies feed the cats and check the house when we aren’t here.
I wave to my neighbors, how much more cordial should I be? I told you I hate small talk and gossipy bullshit. No Facebook think about that? Never had one, value your privacy fool’s
Yo Buttah, that King Arthur Pumpkin Spice muffin mix is the shit. Maybe send them a fresh batch to smooth things over with a little something from the heart, like a cross stitch.

This was the right answer. If it's between that and taking DSM along for tea they'd probably volunteer to fuck off.Quote:
