Just a PSA—if y’all somehow make it passed our private gate and drive on our private road that we work so hard to plow and keep in excellent shape, WE CAN SEE YOU and we’ll let you know we can see you 👀 📱. If you spray paint a tree with yellow spray paint, we’ll not only let you know we know, but also make sure the sherif knows too 💯 👮🏻 🚓 #notcool We LOVE planned visitors!! But if you don’t tell us you are coming we will report you or potentially shoot you 🤷🏻♀️ Not to be rude, but…. trespassing IS A CRIME!! 👀
Comments:
- Melissa McCash That’s so strange. I mean what’s with the X? Did they claim that tree and then drove home? 🤔😆
- Rachel McCash Cronin Melissa McCash it was so weird!! I have no idea 🤷🏻♀️
- Melissa McCash Rachel McCash Cronin maybe they buried something there not knowing someone lived there and marked the spot so they can find it again? 🤔
- Rachel McCash Cronin Melissa McCash yeah could be—I’ll head out in person to that spot and see what if I see anything Todd might have missed 🤔
- Melissa McCash Who knows, maybe they left you the fortune you’ve been attracting! You know, property rights and all. 😎
- Rachel McCash Cronin Melissa McCash yessss lets go with this!! 💰 ✨
- Elisabeth Phelps Rogers Do you have private property signs? So bizarre!
- Rachel McCash Cronin Elisabeth Phelps Rogers oh yeah—there are 3 of them around the gate. “Private property”, “private road—no outlet”, “keep out- private property” 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
- Rachel McCash Cronin Elisabeth Phelps Rogers we should add this one for the slow learners…
- Micha MacDonald Just add one that says, we will shoot you! If that doesn’t deter them, nothing will.
Or one that says Big nasty attack dogs on premises! - Rachel McCash Cronin For reals!!
- Amanda Stiles I saw a sign saying “no trespassing, violators will be prostituted” sure stopped me
- Tatiana Evans I’d be so upset!! You had issues last year with shooting and now this 😕
- Rachel McCash Cronin Tatiana Evans yeah it’s part of mountain living I think. We want to upgrade our gate to a remote open only and keypad for visitors. I think that is a must invest at this point
- Tatiana Evans Rachel McCash Cronin Oooo I love that idea!!
- Kate Francis Why would they spray paint the trees?! Is it forest service people looking for diseased trees and not realizing it’s your property? I’m confused.
- Rachel McCash Cronin Kate Francis yeah it’s super weird. I asked my hubs if the tree looked sick and he said no. I’ll go out tomorrow and look and see if anything stands out that maybe he missed. We texted our neighbor everything and he’s lived here 20 years and never seen those cars or has any ideas on why that would happen other than riffraffs 🤔🤷🏻♀️
- Kate Francis Rachel McCash Cronin so strange!! Or I wonder if logging companies are looking at the area? So weird! I’ve never seen that, especially on private property. 🤷🏻♀️
- Catherine Siena Kate Francis to steal them, then sale them for lumber.
- Catherine Siena Rachel McCash Cronin it’s legal to cut down trees in Colorado, just as long as they aren’t on private property. Sounds like yours are on private property. You should def report, because if they marked it they have every intention of cutting it down.
- Kelsie Louise Catherine Siena yup, this! That’s exactly what it is. They are looking at making them lumber.
- Åbi Åbi Why are they spray painting your tree?!
- Marie Keene It’s weird to me but people in Colorado don’t seem to care if they are trespassing.. I was taught that’s how you get a bullet in your a$$
- Rachel McCash Cronin Marie Keene exactly!! 💯
- Misti Franklin Brice Who does that?! Weird.
- David McCann That’s bizarre! We’ve had people snowshoe thru our land, but not this..eek
- Brandon Lane Maybe irresponsible hunters marking areas so they can find their way back
- Amanda Stiles Keep your own spray paint and paint a car a fun color 😂
- September Exline Do you have alot of land? Migbt be trying to hunt your property.
- Rachel McCash Cronin September Exline we have 35 acres—so not a ton but a decent amount. Definitely going to drive to this spot tomorrow and hike around and see what I can find 👀
- September Exline Id definitely bet on people tryong to hunt your land, sometimes people just assume no one owns it or cares. Happens alot here.
- Crystal Lovejoy September Exline 35 acres is not a ton?!! lol
- Rachel McCash Cronin Crystal Lovejoy haha I’m connected to many with 40-70!! Some with over 100 acres. I’m super happy with 35 though!
- Rachel McCash Cronin Crystal Lovejoy we’ve spoken to many that have told us “its a shame we don’t have 40 acres”… I guess there are many tax and loan benefits with 40 acres and up. I’m still happy with 35 haha
- Rebecka Graves Rachel McCash Cronin put a HUGE no trespassing sign right over that yellow x and a camera (even a fake one would scare people)
- Keith Bryce we have family with over 1,200 acres.. love it. Can’t wait to get mine..
- Rebecka Graves Do you have paintball guns? When the paintballs hit people they leave huuuge nasty welts and of course paint. Much less liability than an actual bullet, and wayyy more fun
- Donnie Ray Sent you a msg
- Robyn Brown Didn’t they know you could see them? Some spray paint is temporary, it wears off after s month or three maybe you can wash it off. Maybe the Sheriff will figure it out.
- Miranda Sele People can be so awful sometimes.
- Karen McCash Is it possible that it was marked by someone in connection with construction or surveying? I hope this may have been an innocent thing….? I’m a ” look at the good side of life” type of being ….
