Dropped off my brakes at Midwest Calipers to get powder coated.

The youngest boy came running in the house and said “there is a strange lady on the front yard. She said she was from London and wanted to give Cece (our dog) a treat”

I went down and there is a lady just sitting on one of our logs of firewood

I ask if I can help her and she said. No I’m just walking around.

I said okay but this is private property. She said. It’s very beautiful. (As she proceeds to pull a cigarette out of her purse.)

I said thank you. But is there something I can do for you.

She said no I just have this bad habit and I don’t want anyone to see me.

I said okay but my kids and dog play out here this is MY yard. It’s private property.

She looked shocked and said. Oh you want me to leave.

Yes please. And she walked away

What the hell is wrong with people? What makes them think they have the right to trespass?

I have people cutting through my yard daily. Infuriating

In my mind, it played out more like a porno and she was much more attractive.

I don’t have that kind of luck. Lol.

We are right on highway 21 and there is no sidewalk. Sometimes I’ll see people walking on the grass. This didn’t bother me at all.

Coming 50 feet onto my property to engage with my kid and asking questions about my dog. And then lighting up a cigaret like you own the place. To me that crosses the line.

Apparently not!!!

Isn't that George Burns. lmao

I have problems like this at my workplace which is a trucking company. We have an entrance for cars and trucks. Both entrances have signs that say “PRIVATE PROPERTY. NO TRESPASSING”. Yet people think it’s okay to park their cars in our parking lot and go across the street to the Indian temple. I’ve booted out so many people out of our parking lot. They have the stupidest reasons, like parking lot across the street is full, can’t talk on cell phone when driving so parked here, etc. then I tell them our cameras are recording them and we’ll charge them for trespassing. They immediately leave. Even had a couple tow trucks with cars on their backs from an accident and they blocked the truck entrance. I asked them kindly to move to our second yard so they weren’t blocking the truck entrance. The guys actually gave me attitude. Like I didn’t tell them to leave, just get out of the way so our trucks can get in.

Nice to see my claim in the Canadian Microsoft Software class action lawsuit was approved, getting a cheque for $52.

It's mostly kids but strollers and bikes cut through. I have a thoroughfare out front and a newish development out back. 150' between the front and back. Last couple of years I put up motion detector sprinklers in choke points with minimal effect. I had a group of 15 or so 20 somethings cut through last summer on the one night I had the sprinklers shut off. I think the bulk of illegal border crossers go undetected based on the garbage left behind. Not bothering with sprinklers this year as I don't want to pay the water bills. Animals set them off often.

I got a drone I need to learn to fly. I'm thinking I'll follow interlopers with my drone. I'll grab a newspaper and lawn chair and camp out on the interlopers yard since we're all sharing our turf.

I was welding up something on my drive and a group of 4 teens cut through last week. I dropped my shit and started following them. In short order they got nervous. I asked them where "we" were going. They had a football and I made like I intended to accompany them. They made excuses and I turned around before they realized I was one and they were four.

Wow, that’s not creepy at all.

Wow, that’s not creepy at all.

how would you deal with it? I'm open to suggestions.

Last I checked fences aren't free.
