TIL a neighbor's tip saved my fence from washing out

I was putting in a fence near a property line last week. The next-door guy saw me digging and told me about a drainage ditch that floods in heavy rain. I moved the post holes a few feet uphill. Now the fence sits on solid ground and won't get washed out in a storm.

Did your neighbor just secretly survey your property or something?

Whoa, how did he know that?

Probably saw the last guy's fence wash out and thought, 'not this time.' Good on him for not just watching you make the same mistake.
