Life on the farm

[walhondingMF]

The drivers are very impressive. Our road is just like yours. Pretty much a single lane gravel road and how the pipe trucks navigated it was hard to believe. They were never the issue either, but the crews that have been up and down the road have very poor "driving manors." Several of use have been in ditches or even hit by them. Its been an issue.

They have already pushed aside the topsoil, seeded and strawed it, and dug the trench across our farm, and have pipe ready to go in the hole. Now it's up to how fast the welders can work. 3 loads of pipe came today.

Pipeline across the farm, and one of me using the L5030 to mow, but was pushing a dead tree out of the field.

still getting a lot of trespassing at the farm, every weekend they drive right past the No Tresspass signs.
The silt fence they put up prohibits closing the gate, but might need to Go one weekend and sit out there and wait.

Boy am I glad I don't have any tresspass issues.

We never did, until the pipeline work.

We've always had a lot of issues with people trespassing to hunt. Used to have a small collection of tree stands in the barn from people "not knowing where the line was." Have issues now with people shed hunting.
I know they aren't cheap but the satellite connected game cameras are a good idea. A month ago I helped a buddy set one up in his mother's woods. Father passed last spring so many know he is not around to keep people out. We have caught 3 different trespasser since.

We have lots of cameras, including cell cams.

I wonder why the pipeline work would trigger trespassing. Any thoughts?

All the best,

Out of town people now in the area... a lot of activity so assuming landowners wouldn't notice... new access...
There are a different possibilities.
