Same here. I had to get a restraining order.

Our property is mostly fenced too. Our front gate and barn gate are locked. Keeps people out, and from letting out our dogs. Of course, 3 Great Pyrenees barking at you at the gate is pretty discouraging as well.

We still wave at people going past if we are out there, but there are no invitations.
