Mark, here's my thoughts - fancy gates with ranch names in bold letters invite thieves and trespassers.
At one time our camphouse was visable from the highway.
It was broken into and cleaned us out!
Lost all tools, stove and utensiles, table I built in high school shop, trophy deer mount, personal items - still makes me sick.
That was more than thirty years ago.
We let the brush and trees grow and took off my fancy G/ brand and let the gate go into disrepair. Now I even have to hunt for the entry way!
No one even knows it's there except a near neighbor.
No trespassers or breakin since!
George
