The Janitor appears followed by his cart, which is loaded with wooden
signs.

He walks slowly to the northwest corner of the patch and takes a sign
from the pile. He knocks the spike into the ground, and spends a moment
checking the alignment. Properly placed, the sign can clearly be seen
to read 'Danger'.

Apparently satisfied, the Janitor proceeds along the north border placing
additional signs every few hundred yards.

Having completed his task, the Janitor leaves with his now empty
cart.

The man appeared again, with the cart, muttering to himself as if irritated.

He began the long process of removing all the signs.
