Just don't get me started about the turkeys. Neighbors give mother nature a helping hand by feeding them and they come into my yard and poop everywhere. (The turkeys, not the neighbors. They are not welcome to poop in my yard either.)
Grrrrr.

I had a skunk brush up against my leg last summer as I was taking out the garbage - I thought it was a cat, as it walked beside me for a moment. Then I realized what "it" was and about had a heart attack.
And turkeys... if you really wanna see a show, come up on Route 140 at about 8:30 or 9:30 a.m., just above the fire station here in Alton, as about dozen or so cross a major road, headed to the "ALL YOU CAN EAT" buffet one of my neighbors puts out. Those are some serious speed bumps crossing the road! (They are HUGE! Bigger than the youngest Arglet!)
