"John's Little Acre" borrowed from ACSM bulletin, August 1975. Enjoy! Jp
I would "LIKE" this 10 times if I could. Thank you for sharing...
Since you shared this here, I will hope you don't mind if I share this at a seminar I assist at.

:)I probably did something wrong by posting but can't imagine the author would mind us sharing years latter. If I wrote it I would be happy that value was still found in the story. Jp
Go for it Monte. 😎
Is there a problem with sharing an article that someone published in a magazine? I should probably know this, but if it is publicly published, what is the harm in sharing it?
(by the way, I think you meant "perspective". Sorry but everytime I see this title, I have been "biting my tongue" and now it has been loosed.)
I liked the article. I had to download the image. Then, open the image in my photo editing software. Then, scale it up a bit. But, I finally got to read "John's Little Acre".
Thanks!

L.M. Powell Passed on many years ago, and so has his son Steve. I've retraced both across the Bitterroot valley. Good Surveyors....

I shouldn't have said anything.

If that's the worst spelling mistake made this week, we'll all be lucky. The "Spelling Police" are a running joke around here, but really we're just trying to help each other express ourselves more clearly. Take it as a learning experience as I'm sure it was intended, not as a personal attack, and please do contribute when you have something to add.
It's just a web site where we all state things off the top of our heads. They aren't words on a legal description. Sometimes we mistype some words. It is kind of rude to point out a typo. My apologies. I do that too often.
Well, there's the question of whether the article's copyright is held by the author (or heirs), the ACSM, or shared.
a copy of this was given to me in a surveying class years ago. i pass it along anytime that a question comes up about the differences in the still used original record description, usually an office concocted north-south-east-west with even distances, versus whats on the ground. it has come in handy many times and helps to explain things pretty well w/out me having to say a word.

I don't think anyone is loosing sleep over it.

No biggie 🙂 I know I can't spell or for that matter punctuate. My college English 1a teacher gave me an F on all my essays but then proceeded to read them out loud to the class because the story was good. Go figure; hope I still can add some value with bad spelling and punctuation. Jp
p.s. I pulled out a "C" somehow in that English class. 🙂
