Back Yard Peril

This evening after I went for a run I went outside and sat on the backyard swing to cool off.  As I sat there I noticed a skunk waddling my way from two houses down. I sat quietly and he/she came right up to where I was sitting. He was three feet away and never let on if he saw me. He continued to graze around the yard until I made some noises and he scampered off into the bushes next door. My neighbor next door has put out some repellent to keep skunks out of his yard. I guess it must be working because the skunk walked though his yard and didn’t stop.

Is there no safe place?
