This is a very interesting article.

When we were living in the Upper Eastern Shore of Maryland, our church bought land to build a new church building just over the Delaware line. It was expected to be a straight forward project to build the church ( about a year).

Ah!...What we didn’t know was the foundation of the building sat right on the line where the Piedmont ridge began. Half the foundation would be on the firm granite of the Piedmont Ridge and the other half would be on the softer alluvial land that formed the Eastern Shore. BIG problem!

Five years later we finally opened the doors on our new church.
