My Aunt Told Me I Wasn’t Welcome At The Family Lakehouse. So I Waited For Her To Leave, And Made A Change To The Deed

Posts Online, Chains The Side Gate

By evening, a neighbor texted me screenshots of Deborah’s post about trespassers at the lake, tagged with the cove name.

Thirty minutes later, I saw a fresh chain and padlock looped through the side gate. I photographed the chain from three angles, measured its height from the ground, and logged the time.

The gate blocked the service path used by the electrician. I emailed Mitch and Brad, asking whether we should address the obstruction formally.
