We have a problem. A pretty big problem. I've had some trespassers recently. Some unwanted more than others. Best bottom line is, we've got trespassers worse we gotta do something about it. And I thought my no trespassing signs were pretty clear, but I guess not. So today, we're gonna be building a fortress to keep these trespassers out of my property. And after three long hard days of hard work, me and my friend Travis finally completed the perfect gate to keep these trespassers out. And after spending hours of my own time and thousands of dollars on the equipment to get this thing put together, it was finally finished. And now all that's left to do is laugh at these kids when they pull up and try and get into my property and they can't because I have this gate. The days of the neighbor kids cutting across my property are over, so I thought. This dude literally just crawled right through my gate, just right through it. And these raccoons had a party in my driveway. The only thing this gate has stopped is my Amazon package getting to my front good. So I am open to any further suggestions you guys might have.
