Went to look at, as in literally just drive by, another house today.

I was pretty charmed tbh. It's near a lake and the neighborhood is clearly built around it, but not in a vacation home way.

The yard of the house I'm interested in was overgrown so I couldn't really see the backyard from my car. But once cleaned up it seems like it'd have a nice view of the lake, which is really cool. Also the house is up a decent hill so flooding shouldn't be a concern. The other houses I saw looked cared for, gardens and intentionally left wild but maintained patches among mowed lawns.

On my way back, about 10 minutes from the house, I passed a shopping complex with a Tractor Supply store so I stopped in. I brought Forte in an off duty capacity. Literally every employee greeted me kindly and had a compliment for Forte.

At one point an employee asked if he could give Forte a treat, milkbone, so I said yes. He told Forte to sit and Forte just looked at me so I gave him the sit cue and he sat. Then the guy offered the treat to Forte and he once again just looked at me until I told him he could have it. As Forte was taking the treat another employee came up behind the guy and Forte dropped the treat.

The guy, playfully, scolded his coworker for scaring the dog and I explained that actually Forte is just more interested in saying hi. This lady wasted no time pushing her past her coworker to make herself available to Forte. I warned her he's a licker and she knelt down and opened her arms. I gave Forte the go ahead and they became instant best friends with Forte kissing her and pressing himself into her while she pet him and told him how sweet he was.

If I were someone else he would have made for an excellent therapy dog because he loves to be physically affectionate with people.

Anyway I'm glad I took the extra two hours out of my day to check this house out. Obviously this doesn't tell me everything about this place (house/community). But it does tell me I want to further investigate.
