Oh, heâ€™s a great deterrent to door-to-door solicitorsâ€¦.just let him outside when you see someone walking through the neighborhood. ïŠ My joys in life, besides my family, include cooking, gardening and fishing. With the exception of 2 years during the past 14 years, my brother (a retired Oakland Fire Battalion Chief) and I travel to British Columbia each year with a group of other firemen and fish for salmon and halibut.
