Yes, moments like this are beyond cool. Pretty magic, really. If one spends enough time out there, maybe in the right frame of mind or whatever, these "magic" moments come along just often enough to keep us coming back for more.

Ifn I lived in a semi rural area with some property I would have me 3 or 4 Airedales, I could guarntee that nothing that did not belong there would be there....Smart, Strong and Fearless.
