You Know You're Home When...
I had to drive my daughter down to our hometown yesterday for a stupid baby shower and we were meeting one of her friends at the local burger hangout for lunch. As I was getting out of the car there, I happen to catch a glimpse of movement in the back of the Grand Cherokee parked beside us....enough to startle me a little because I recognized it was some kind of animal, but not a dog or cat. I took a closer look, and almost fell over laughing.
My daughter & her friend stopped gabbing long enough to ask WTH was wrong with me. I finally gasped "Now I know we're in Marshall. Come look in the back of this Jeep." They cautiously walked around & peered in one of the open windows, and started rolling with laughter as well.
The back seat of the Jeep was folded down, and the entire space was filled with 2 large wire crates....absolutely stuffed full of the last thing I expected to see. Very large white chickens.
When we could finally stop laughing enough to talk, my daughter asked "Why in the world would anyone bring all those chickens to the Daisy Queen?"
"Well it is Sunday you know," I replied.
