It must be those nice, large feet of theirs. And I think they hate to make noise in the woods, too. I've seen them walking on moss, on rocks, anything to avoid stepping on crunchy leaves.<br /><br />Carolyn H.Carolyn Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03179182853082650546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15891819.post-75763098955107093872010-11-15T12:22:29.030-05:002010-11-15T12:22:29.030-05:00Griz: Grr...

I do miss having the windows open, though.<br /><br />Carolyn H.Carolyn Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03179182853082650546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15891819.post-56978064179725019782010-11-14T05:01:15.386-05:002010-11-14T05:01:15.386-05:00This is beautiful!!

In fact, I can see across the island, across the far channel, and into the woods on the opposite bank. Neat. Unfortunately, I can also see the top of a big medical center three-quarters of a mile away and lights from the road beyond—which kills my illusion of living in the isolated wilds. It also makes things a bit noisier as I can now hear the occasional truck on the distant Interstate.<br /><br />I love the cozy quiet I have here from spring through fall, and resent reality from stomping on my wilderness fantasy. But I also like watching the fox squirrels and pileateds on the island, not to mention the occasional whitetail or mink.<br /><br />Such a dilemma!Grizz…………https://www.blogger.com/profile/04828454689578685330noreply@blogger.com
