We do this too. Isn’t it a good feeling? Of course, I can’t resist sometimes setting the alarm anyway just to see who’s coming - at least until we get our first snowfall and I can feel good seeing the tracks in the snow and knowing some of our tenants in the squirrel boxes, high in the trees on our property, had a hearty breakfast.
