Do what you like. Stop hating people for their riding habits and get back to hating them for their skin color, religion, politics, and sexual orientation.

Apparently people used to live on the property. Hence the roadways, outhouse, dog pens, fences, and domesticated plants such as azaleas. I think it would have been a nice place to live back in the day, with the ponds and all. But I've never seen the foundations of any houses. Maybe they were old enough to be supported by rocks and not foundations.  I'm puzzled though by the sprinkler heads sticking out of the ground on the lake loop. Maybe a plant nursery at one time?

I always assumed this as well.  If you look at the ground in that area there is also the black landscaping material on the ground that keeps weeds from coming up through beds...
