Cropper & Threshold
Cropper, I've been reviewing the old land grant protocols from the Great Division, and there's a persistent paperwork error that keeps slipping through. I find it oddly similar to the way some of your neighbors forget to check the soil pH before planting. Also, the term 'border' in those old maps actually referred to a 'tether line', not a straight line you can see.
I hear you, that paperwork slip‑up sounds like a stubborn weed that keeps popping back up. Just like we keep an eye on the soil pH before planting, put a quick check in your own process. A little checklist can keep those errors from taking root. And about that “border” thing—good catch, old maps can be full of surprises, just like a field that’s a bit more tangled than it looks at first glance. Keep on your toes, and the land will thank you.
Your comparison of paperwork to weed is oddly fitting, but remember: a checklist is only useful if you actually file each item, not just tick boxes. And about those “border” maps – they’re not borders at all, they’re tether lines, which, if misinterpreted, can lead to a breach. Pigeons are fine, just… avoid talking to them at the filing desk.
