When you finally like the warming character of white-cabbage stew in the foggy, rainy winterweather and even the smell is okay to you.

Growing up in NJ in the late '60s/'70s, I was excited when I picked up an Ohio or North Carolina station
Don't say anything; just turn on the sprinklers.when you have to tell kids to get off your lawn or stay off your property, and the same thing happens everytime, they keep coming back more just to show you, you cant tell them what to do, I stopped asking them to go away and just dont say anything now.
most people dont like being told to do anything, especially teens & twenties, they usually do the opposite to annoy you
a grown lady with her child even kept coming back and hanging out on my lawn / driveway trying to make me get into an argument, because they didnt like me telling them to stay off my property, she was probably going to tell the polce i tried to threaten them , but I just didnt say anything , and they came back at least 30 more times just to annoy me.

There's always a couple of canine cupcakes near the end of the driveway to capture the unwary.
Yeah, I really didn't think that all the way through.I like the sprinkler comment.
Except in the summer. Then you'll have the whole neighborhood on your lawn...
You know you are getting old when you remember that this was the only way to
