For the sake of potentially sounding crazy.........

Bought an older house. The previous owner (who I never met/talked to)
stuck one-foot sections of rebar (like they use to reinforce concrete)
into the soil around the garden. The rebar is "planted" vertically
(with about six inches protruding from the soil) and is spaced about
six feet apart and is connected together with thin , bare wire.

Any wacky replies are welcome.

Would it be unreasonable to find out the previous owner's name, new phone
number, and give him a call? That seems to have some logic to me.
