Middle Of The Road

"Toto, we're not in Kansas (i.e., the city) anymore."

Hardly a day goes by without a sighting, either in person or posted on FB, of some creature or other in the roads in this area.  This morning it was a chicken up at Four Corners, no doubt trying to get to the other side.  I have seen an emu (they're pretty common, evidently seasoned escape artists), and the occasional sheep.  Pigs are frequent travelers, as well as cows and goats.  Horses, of course, and once in awhile an alpaca out for a stroll.  Vultures have enough sense to fly away.  Turkeys do not.  We're all accustomed to watch for deer, it's the others that spice up our country life.  It's another good reason to slow down and enjoy the scenery.

Keep your eyes open!

Stay safe.  Be well.
