That is so awesome. Kids don't get yelled at enough these days. Back in my day, we wouldn't have even considered going into someone else's yard without their permission because a) our parents taught us better, and b) we'd get yelled at. Sure, we sometimes did it secretly but never "OMG LET'S BLATANTLY TRESPASS UPON THIS PERSON'S YARD AND GIVE THEM LIP WHEN THEY TELL US TO GTFO." And then when we grew up and our super-awesome and neighborhood-famous rope-swing fell to a new generation, those kids were polite enough to ask us for permission to play on our property.
Don't feel old. Feel accomplished for putting those punks in their place! *shakes cane*
