Thanks and have a good one - Diane

Diane, I did not put a security system in my house but I do have two very lively Schnauzers who let me know when anyone is coming near the house even before they ring the doorbell, LOL. But what I did do, to make me feel safer, is I put a lot of motion lights around my house, two are in the lanai and one is at the back end of the house facing the backyard. If someone approaches, the lights go on and either scare them away, or the dogs let me know something's happening. I've never, thank God, had a problem so far. However, if it is something that you feel you need, by all means do it. I have never had one in any big city house that I lived in and didn't feel I needed it here.
