D.O.P.-T.

Yesterday evening when I was watering in the backyard, I came around the back corner of the garage and there was Monty. He made a movement to flee but then hunkered down and watched me as I watered the tomato seedlings I have in pots back there. Soon after, he came and chowed down on the food I'd put on the porch earlier. Today when I took out the first load of laundry, he was back in his old spot behind the geranium pots, even though it's much less shady now that everything has been removed on the other side of the fence. Then when I took the trash and recycling cans to the kerb, he was lying in the shrubbery again. It's good to have him around.
