Just hung out there for 15 minutes or so, watching me work awkwardly since I wouldn't turn my back to him. If we weren't empty nesters whose years with a dog are past, this would not be the location of choice. I feel fortunate to have the wildlife we do, being near the marsh and the intracoastal. All the same, every time Boss-girl sees one I get to hear "he's so cute".
Sounds like you have a nice place. Just keep your eyes open when you're close to the waters edge. Note to self: Hire someone else to cut the grass.
