So, I posted a couple days ago how the ocean is at the end of our road and once you're there it's a short walk along the public shore to a public beach. To get to the shore, though, you have to cut through approximately 15' of the yard at the end of the road. The yard has a path to the shore framed by tall bushes and appears frequently used to access the shore. Yesterday, I received a phone call at work from Chris*, who identified himself as the son of the older couple who own the yard providing the shore access. he indicated he "didn't want to be unneighborly", however, it had been noted that we had used his parents yard to gain access to the shore with our dogs. It had also been noted that walking our dogs down the street "greatly upsets" the Weimeraner who lives down the street (belong to Chris* sister) and is frequently in its yard framed with an invisible fence. Apparently this is very disruptive and needs to stop. Also, Chris*' parents are also considering getting a dog, who will also be in the yard which will be fenced with invisible fence. Obviously, that would pose additional problems. Therefore, please refrain from using the yard to access the shore. Thank you. I may have used a "tone" when I responded, "Okay" just prior to putting the phone down a bit harder than necessary. I am now tempted to just walk the dogs up and down the street, while not using the yard to access the shore. Surely there is no law against walking the dogs on a public road? Dave advises that would be "unneighborly". I prefer "vindictive".
