As the weather warms and you start to venture outside, be careful where you walk.
If you come across a purple fence post, it’s best to stay away.
A purple fence post is meant to send a message to anyone who comes across it, and that message is: No trespassing!
While property owners have the option of hanging a sign to indicate private property,
signs can deteriorate over time while paint will last a lot longer and still convey the same message.
In 1987 Arkansas became the first state to implement a purple paint law. Currently,
22 states have laws allowing landowners to mark the perimeter of their property with purple paint.
However, while some states use different color paint – Idaho and Montana use orange paint – the idea is the same.
At first many governments required landowners use purple paint and signs, but overtime signage was no longer required.
However, if you live in one of the 28 states that does not have a purple paint law, you may be unfamiliar with its meaning.
A painted post or tree means no trespassing.
In order to comply with the law, the purple stripe must be 3′ to 5′ off the ground and at least 8″ long and 1″ wide.
The markings must not be more than 100′ apart.

The famous actor of “Titanic” is now completely unrecognizable
Celebrating a remarkable 25 years since the iconic release of the cinematic masterpiece “Titanic”, it’s awe-inspiring to reflect on the enduring impact of this film and its accompanying Céline Dion anthem, which have become timeless symbols of romance.
Over the years, the lead actors of “Titanic”, including Leonardo DiCaprio and Billy Zane, have undergone notable transformations. DiCaprio’s portrayal of the romantic and penniless artist resonated with audiences, while Billy Zane brought nuance to the character of Rose’s affluent fiancé.
Despite early predictions of a brilliant Hollywood career post-“Titanic”, Zane faced challenges in sustaining the initial peak of popularity. Recent paparazzi captures during his vacation have circulated widely, showcasing a departure from the charismatic and handsome mercenary he portrayed on-screen.
Presently, Zane appears bald and with added weight, a stark contrast to the captivating figure that once enthralled audiences. However, happily committed in marriage for many years, the actor seems unperturbed by the physical changes. He doesn’t appear to harbor regrets for the loss of the physical shape and appeal that made him a sensation during the “Titanic” era.
Zane’s contentment in his personal life takes precedence over external transformations, offering a perspective that transcends the superficial standards of the entertainment industry. Despite the shifts in appearance, the enduring legacy of “Titanic” continues to remind audiences of the timeless nature of romance and love.
