I hope you enjoyed your vacation here!
Oh yes, always have!!!
Came back to snow storms, but I don't even care, 6 more inches of wet heavy snow is just good for the summer moisture levels:-)
Although, I do have to hit the road late this week and they predict more weather:-(

Next time visit Kauai! I will give you a private tour!
Six inches of snow in spring!! We complain when it gets down to 63ºF!!
Well I hope it improves and you have an awesome spring!:good:
Kauai is next, enjoyed them all so far:-)
Our VDOT monuments are not marked either, but they are supposed to be set so that you use the middle of the back edge. The theory is that this way the monument is totally in the right-of-way.
You wouldn't make it very far in my country. Rock outcrops at every turn in the road.
There is also an area with sandstone...
So you like fossils do you
Come up to my place. I have millions of them on 10 acres. No joke. I think many of them are called crinoids. Little animals that looked like plants. Anything that might have lived in and around a huge inland sea that eventually dried up.

Yep! An international phenomenon.
Kids joke about it,even bring back mini monument from USA, I found an old spike lying on (not in) the dirt on Diamond Head.
On Kauai spikes, nails etc abounded, the streets in neighbourhood we stayed at in Oahu had iron covered marks at what were probably centres of cul De sac and TP's of curves.
I was supposed to be on holiday, couldn't shake the blessed things
one of our former district DOT surveyors once told me that these Type I monuments were set mainly for (and probably by) the benefit of r.o.w. mowing crews and had, over the decades, assumed a level of priority that was never intended in the first place. i don't know if that's actually the case state-wide, but would certainly be a good excuse for a lot of things around here.
and this woulda been back when mowing crews were pulling 60" decks behind the live PTO-less ford 9Ns...
