I am unable to convince the county guy who runs the maintainer blade on my road that water runs downhill. He cut a ditch toward the fence line, but about 60 feet above the creek, I guess so the water can go into the creek sooner? Note that the ditch is stopped up at the net fence/brushline, so all it does is make a puddle in the dirt road, and even if the water gets past that, it would have to run uphill to get into that part of the creek. Now I have to fix this so the water can at least get into the creek. He has done this before, cutting drainage "slots" from the road into people's pastures; problem is he usually cuts them while going up slope. There must be a reason he couldn't get that job with NASA. :bang:
