Part of buying land is planting the demarcation posts or property markers. Ours is a bacon-shaped strip rather than a nice rectangle with square edges. Property marking is often done with short posts, but we decided to buy the full-sized fence posts rather than spend money on something temporary. We try to think long-term rather than quick and easy in all we do. We want the ministry God does through us to outlast us and our grandchildren.
Here you can see Pepé, our little blue mule (the motorcycle truck), moving materials around the new 8-acre lot. Patrick, Todd's number one man, managed to hire some helpers and bring some friends and, in two hot, sweaty days, got all twenty marking posts up and set in stone.
