Seems someone must have placed it over the guardrail - possibly whomever has been mowing along the road?

The pipe has been there for at least 2 weeks. I actually pulled over the other day to look closer at it - some is 1", some 2" - and possibly some other sizes. Whomever dropped/lost it - hasn't come back for it yet. Out of curiosity, I looked at the HD web site - that 2" pipe is almost $30 a stick! Almost $50 for Sch 80 - I don't know if it is Sch 40 or 80 as I didn't look that close.

Would you consider it stealing to find a "new home" for the PVC? I figured I could sell it on Craigs site at half price and make a few hundred.
I'd take it. Finders keepers and all that.
