Weird moment

I just came to the house because my dogs were barking. Just before I got here a truck went down the road real slow, turned around at the neighbors house and came back real slow. I stood in my driveway so they would see me thinking they might be lost or they could be looking for me, not that I was expecting any company today. Apparently not as they continued to drive.

Just remembered a neighbor who doesn't seem to be home much lately so I rode up there to be sure there wasn't anyone there who wasn't supposed to be, then made a circle around the neighborhood, no sign of the truck. Hopefully whoever it was learned that there are 4 large dogs loose in my yard, and just because there isn't a vehicle at my house doesn't mean I'm not within earshot.

This is where I miss my German Shepherd. He was a big boy and very territorial.
I live in the country down a long private dirt road, so if you're driving that far in, you'll be coming for a purpose, or for more nefarious reasons.
We do suffer break-in's here, but I'm usually present aside from the occasional junket to Phoenix, or a quick ride to town.
I'm armed, and as they say, "head or a swivel."

@Freeranger I work from home most days and my truck is usually parked out at the shop so unless someone knows that they can't be sure if I'm here or not. Once upon a time I had a bull dog I found abandoned on the side of the road. He had been abused and looked extremely rough but was harmless. People tended to panic when they saw him coming around the corner of the house.
