What happens here
As you scout the property, investigate any unusual or old features. In this case, an old car was found in a ditch, which became a point of interest. Further along, a 'corn line' (an old row where corn was previously planted) indicates a historical boundary or area of cultivation. Also, identify natural waterways like creeks, noting their age and potential as natural boundaries.
Goal: Discover historical features and natural water boundaries.
