It wasn't long after we got home that we moved

out to the country which is really nice.

It's about 400 yards from the front gate to my door

so you aren't going to make it

to my house before somebody hasn't,

something hasn't seen you.

I've got dogs and geese that let me know everything

that goes on the property.

I mean you find yourself just surrounding yourself

with all these safety measures so you can relax.

You don't think about it first and after a while you think,

"Wow, that's ridiculous."

[laughs] But, you do it.
