It was gone, but closer inspection revealed a hole in the asphalt with a small stone wrapped up in flagging shoved into the hole. The hole fit the recorded distances. We all laughed about finding an "original stone".

We use pink ribbon to make the PK nail fit tighter in the drilled out hole.

It's good for tying to the legs of your polar fleece underwear so when you put your pants on your underwear don't come up but it looks real funny at the courthouse with pink flag and hanging out of your pants!

Oh, I have absolutely no problem with doing that, I just don't want anyone blaming me if they get in trouble with the Women in the family.

I have used several wraps of flagging around each pants leg to keep leaches out when wading swamps in Alabama and Mississippi

Is polar fleece underwear common dress in SW Arkansas? Just curious.

It is on days where it stays below 32 degrees.

Just curious, if I happen to see a funeral procession drive by with a lot of pink flagging flying in the wind, once I pull over of course, what would be a proper surveyor salute?

Cut 6.0 on a wood stake at the gravesite.

Neighbor, my former boss, uses it to mark his electric fence. Ties on a piece about every 50'. The cattle don't eat it either.
I used it once in combination with a big wad of toilet paper to bandage up a wound I got in my leg when a piece broke off a bull pin. Also tie a piece around the drive shaft on the corn planter so I can quickly see if it's turning.

Used to have a field guy that would use flagging as a belt.

Orange is my favorite. When I'm feeling froggy I double up orange and white.
