There's also signs you can post to protect your property and still allow people access. They say something like 'Permission to by permission and subject to control of owner' and they refer to Section 1008 of the Civil Code (In Santa Cruz at least). You see them along some of the beaches and on some public buildings. I'm no lawer either, but from what I was able to look up, that basically says 'You're allowed to pass though here, but you can't assume you always will be allowed to, or claim squatters rights or somesuch.'. -Carl Norden
