When I walk around the block, at one house a dog always comes along the fence and barks for the entire length. We chat. Today it went something like this,
“Hello there. How are you today? I see you almost everyday and it seems like you should be getting to know me by now. Maybe, if I knew your name, we could be better friends.”
“HAILEY!”
I literally spun around looking for where that voice might have come from. Surely this wasn’t a Mr Ed-like experience.
Ah-ha, behind the very tall spreading evergreen, someone was pruning crape myrtles. Hailey and John:

Most of the time, flocks of birds will take off when I walk by, but these birds just walked fast. Hundreds of feet swooshing through the water.
