When you get a wife, well, you also get inlaws. When your wife got you, she also got inlaws. Well, not all inlaws are as perfect and attractive as you are (wink!). Some of them are downright stinking.
The better you and her handle your/her inlaws, well, the better the surveying business will be, as inlaws can be emotionally taxing. And, we all need all we can get up emotionally, to do good surveying!

I hope some of you enjoy or benefit from this stuff.
