use goof off if its stubborn, goof off even takes off permanent marker.

a good friends 2 year old son used permanent marker on newly painted
walls, all came off fine

Thanks for the ideas, everyone. I got out there before the direct sun could
bake it, and much to my suprise, the paint was still liquid, almost like
mustard jello. Guess the cold worked in my favor, and kept it from flowing.
Putty knife for the thick spots, wipe with a paper towel, 2nd wipe with a
towel and Goop hand cleaner (all I had handy), and almost all the stains are
gone. You can still see traces, but the place is due for painting this sumer
anyway, and it doesn't really show from the street any more.

Guess I need to start leaving the motion lights on the garage on, in spite
of all the false positives from tree branches and passing traffic.
(wall-mounted sconces, so no way to re-aim.)
