I love music too! It's always playing where I'm at. Earphones are my escape.
We do have "critters" outside, not really pets but residents that share our space. There are many squirrels in our yard that love to play chase with our dogs. There are beavers in the creek behind our house. They are a lot of fun to watch. There have been a couple of gators out there too, but I think they have moved on. Glad of that!!
The squirrels are my favorite!
