post installation
- Find the location based on the map and photos.
- Bury the 6ft post at least 2ft underground (should be marked when you pick up the posts).
2ft 3in is probably ideal.
- Make sure the post is level!
4. Pack in the dirt tight!
Signs will be installed in a few weeks.
If there are any questions about the location, give Tommy or Michael a call / facetime and we can help.
