When we lived in Arlington, the closest thing we got to wild animals were squirrels and birds. Living in the Town of Trophy Club, we get a little more action. While we are not technically in the country, we aren't really in the city either. You pass longhorn cattle, buffalo and even camels along 114 when you come to our house. Then you have to go through all of TC to get back to our house which is nestled in a private street by Lake Grapevine. We have no homes behind us and never will as the Corp of Engineers owns the land and it is flood zone. The woods go on forever and ever and is the home to many animals. So far this week, we have had our first snake which was on our driveway, watched deer, possums, and raccoons play right behind our fence, listened to coyotes and hogs, and then watched a turkey as it walked across the field across from us. It is never dull out here and we love it. I do not love the snake though! We bought moth balls last night to put out in the flower beds just in case....

Kelly ran over it with his truck. We didn't even see it in the drive way when we pulled in!
