How to deal with a squatter

[PaulW]

KathyH,

First you say:
"When our friend in California sent the word to make sure he was gone because he, the owner, was coming for his winter stay, the guy only moved to a different area of the property"

Then you say:
"Thanks guys, but NO I said the owner was NOT aware"

If the owner was not aware then why did he (the owner) send word to make sure he (the squatter) was gone?

I've probably misunderstood something. Maybe it's clearer to use Owner, Caretaker and Squatter instead of "he".

I hope it all gets worked out.
