Gabriel, I like the new profile pic. i think most of us are dog/animal lovers here. Are those Australian Cattledogs? I'll bet they'd take care of Rob's animal problems in a heartbeat.

My garden may be safe from all you marauders due to the plethora of critters abiding here right now. I need to take down my no trespassing sign

Thumb of 2015-10-25/grannysgarden/9eb9b3

and replace it with one that says "this garden protected by fire ants and pit vipers!"

An old gardener I know that lives in the mountains has a sign that says 'anyone caught hanging around here after dark will be found hanging around here the next morning'. Another landscaper has a sign on the gate to his rural business that says 'if you are close enough to read this sign, you are within rifle range'.

I worked at a veterinary clinic that said "Parking for clients only. All others will be spayed or neutered". But I like the others you guys have. I've found people hiking on my property looking for the waterfall.. which is on my neighbor's private property. I've had others tell me that everyone should be able to hike where they wanted... Sighing!

They need to move to England. We do not have the 'right to roam' system here. I do miss the concept of a common area within a city or town, however.

They will see some very familiar ones in my yard as well. Greg better come down from PA to join in our swap as well. His folks live over by the High Point area. If he joins the raiding party he will just be taking back his own iris!!

We have a trail crossing our property which is part of a system which goes all over town. One should carry the membership tag for the trail association. There is an easement on our deed now which will not let it be closed. However, our garden has the old livestock fence from when we had the ponies. I wish the deer realized if it is there, don't jump it.
