[QUOTE="Ouachita, post: 943607, member: 16802"] After my Dad died 2 years ago, I bought all the land from my step mom, except for the house and 5 acres. Dad's land bordered my place, so it was more strategic purchase than necessity. The house finally sold last September. It's likely the realtor did not explain to these city folk how big (small) 5 acres is, and because there was not yet a fence up between my land and their land, they might have thought that big field was theirs. They hadn't even finished moving in, when one Saturday night I took my wife and kids diller hunting. It was about 9pm. Those folks called the sheriff because somebody was driving a truck and shooting loud guns on THEIR land. When the sheriff arrived, with his bath robe on, I explained everything but the neigbors would not hear it. They insisted that I had to have driven across there land from the county road to get into that field. They did not know my house was half mile behind them. I hopped back in the truck and drove home, through the field. Next day, there was a fence up, with NO TRESPASSING signs aimed their direction. Wife baked them a Christmas basket. I broke a garden spot for them. Turns out they are really nice folks. Good fences make good neighbors [/QUOTE]
