| 4 Wheeling offroad at the peak of the fall
season |
| There was
nothing like coming to the top of the
mountain, and reaching a clearing that gave you a view
across the valley. Time and again, we stopped
just to look at scenes like these. It isn't
often that we can get lucky enough to not only pick a
perfect weekend as far as the fall season foliage
goes, but to have the fortune of good weather to enjoy
it is a real bonus. |

| As the weekend wore down, we had plenty to
talk about over the camp fire Saturday night. Mud
holes, great weather, fall foliage, trespassing laws,
posted land (or lack there of), Jeeps slipping off the
trail, new parts, new carbs, shackle lifts, broken
transmissions, and what we'll be doing next hunting
season. Let's talk about clearing our own trails
on the land we own up here. There's potential back
there. And we won't have to worry about squirrel
hunters. |

| Over the glow of the campfire, came the glow of two
Mac laptops, up linked through a broadband connection
... researching. What did we learn? Well we
learned that the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes of
the Vehicle Code (Title 75) section (a) and (b) states:
§ 3717. Trespass by motor vehicle.
(a) General rule.--It is unlawful for a person to
knowingly operate a motor vehicle on private real
property other than a private road
or driveway without consent of the owner or
lessor of the real property.
(b) Operation of motor vehicle on
private road or driveway prohibited.--Except when
necessary as a result of emergency or when necessary to
provide the operator a means of turning his vehicle
around on portions of highways where no other means of
turning around is provided, it is unlawful, without the
consent of the owner or lessor, for a person to
knowingly operate a motor vehicle on a private road or
driveway. There shall be a
rebuttable presumption that a person has knowingly
violated this subsection if the owner or lessor of the
road or driveway has placed, at or near the points of
entry from public or private vehicular access, a gate,
fence or similar obstruction or a readily visible sign
that would reasonably convey that the unauthorized
operation of motor vehicles on the road or driveway is
prohibited. |

| Great shot of the campfire Lewis. There's
something about a campfire that contrasts two battery
operated laptops browsing the Internet that just give you
a warm feeling. Or maybe it was the roman candles
and bottle rockets that did that. Alright, who
threw that thing in the fire? Give me another beer. |
