That's an interesting statement, ED. I would have a hard time believing they would put up no trespassing signs. I believe they would just close the gates and you would enter at your own risk. There just wouldn't be any facilities open or water available, no cut grass, etc. The property was purchased by taxpayers money. Could they force us to stay out?
