    The owner didn't notice this carving with the other carvings until seeing it outside a few days later.

    Hold Uper Deo

    In the Bible use of the word Hold, means to Trust and Embrace

    Latin/Greek/Early Roman-Limited area: Uper, means Over and/or Above

    Latin: Deo, means A God.

    The saying would mean: Trust God Above


    Makes you wonder if the guy was preparing for a heated battle.

    Interested in the Still Sweet 20 ?
