Ooooh. I'd be mad too. But the expression on their face would be priceless when you stroll up.
BTW, before we moved to our house the neighbors down the street (a lo of them) like to walk up our driveway to cut to the pool. We have a fence but they still end up walking on the property as they go to the pool. It's a private area for sure, not a public one.
I tried to be a good neighbor but when I left the garage door open (opens to the side of the house) and walked out to find an entire family walking up the drive way and without thinking twice they all squeeze around my truck and a tree and continue on to the pool. I was not happy. Then at 2am when a bunch of teenagers did it, I had a fit. The HOA was like "oh don't worry those are really good kids..."
I didn't even acknowledge that when it was said. They fixed the problem the next day. But for some reason kids in my neighborhood (great neighborhood with no problems) just walk through peoples yards without a second thought. Then I noticed, so do their parents.
I know I know. I'm that guy now. But yards are a lot of work.
