If fences make good neighbours, signs are often indications that all is not well in the neighbourhood. This sign is one of a number posted along the laneway into the Bayer home and farm. One of the claims levelled against the Bayers were that Mr. Bayer was blowing snow onto the trees recently planted by the neighbours in order to damage them. The trees line the length of the laneway, but do not appear to extend into the field behind. Members of the Bayer family have been farming in the area for multiple generations.
