This is on a right of way at a P.C. of entrance to a side road. The main road is rather busy but is still only two lanes and the side road is a small residential road in a platted subdivision. We are surveying a lot between this side road and the next one to east, for a new seawall permit. The ole' schonstedt went to a singin' when I got close.

Upon further inspection and depending on the angle you look at them, one of them is more straight up and down than the other. Oddly enough when I dug down a little more, they were wrapped around each other and all had different colors of survey ribbon. In this case, I located the center of the cluster, because that is where I presume them all to annotate.

Remains of a concrete monument? I've seen the twisting you describe when a bush-hog gets a hold of a concrete monument, shattering the concrete and twisting the rebar.

That's what it reminded me of too.

One bag of Sakrete, a little water, and a shiny new 3å? inch diam "stem Cap," and you're good to go.

I thought it could possibly be a broken monument also, but these were a variety of 1/2" and 5/8" of different levels of rustiness.

eh...just locate the one that isn't bent and forget about the other two. How much of a difference would it make anyway?

How do these things get pin cushioned so bad all the time? What are these people doing?

If this was in Texas it would be easy to decide which one to hold. Just figure out which one was set by a guy Texas AM or in Louisiana the guy from LSU since they are always correct.

I don't have access to the picture, but I did take a picture of a similar monument in Disneyland in Anaheim a couple of years ago.

Just wanted to point out the (R) on the mouse monument. That company protects EVERYTHING and is absolutely ruthless.

Yep. Of course, that is one of the things about copyright laws. If you register a trademark (like those ears) you are required to actively protect it. If you don't, you risk losing the right to keep it.

From my calculations the actual point appears to be 0.0026' N 75å¡21'13.26984" W of the original location of the rod with the orange/yellow flagging,.........which is probably over 5' from the current location because someone moved the entire corner brace with rod attached.
