If you wander off the northwest side of the remote-controlled airplane field in Deep River County Park, you will encounter this perfect row of trees. They're all the same kind. (I don't know what kind. Gosh, maybe I should get a tree identification guide, hm?)
It's obvious they grew up along a fence line. You can still find among them, and imbedded in some of them, the remains of the barbed wire that made up that fence.

And at either end of the line of trees you can even find some of the old fence posts.
I think that fence marked the line between Fred Yager's property and Henry Nolte's. I'm not either of those guys put up the fence — it's probably not that old — I'm just saying that when you're looking at these trees and those old posts, you're probably looking at the property line.
