Then, a brown and white streak appeared. It was Coco, the neighbor's Jack Russell, weaving through my vegetable garden. I sighed, but there was no real annoyance. I found myself thinking, "Well, here we go again." I chuckled, the sound bubbling up from some hidden reservoir of amusement. I bent down and gently scooped up Coco, and brought him back towards the hole in the fence.
