[A] possessor of land is not liable to his invitees for physical harm caused to them by any activity or condition on the land whose danger is known or obvious to them unless the possessor should anticipate the harm despite such knowledge and obviousness. The ... possessor may have reason to expect harm to a visitor from known or obvious dangers, for example when the possessor has reason to expect that the invitee’s attention may be distracted, so he will not discover what is obvious, or forget what he has discovered, or fail to protect himself against it. Since there is no such evidence here, the trial court was correct in awarding summary judgment in favor of the Romos.
