    I walked out the door this evening to find I have acquired a new hood ornament!

    Bhohahaha.....Man, that reminds me of the spruce grouse perched on the hood of the 87 Bronco on top of the mountain, up on Grand Mesa, CO....in about the same spot.

    Walking back to the parked Bronco, near the top.....truck was small enough to drive the forest service road on the mountain.

    So It was, who was gonna shoot it off the hood with their elk rifle.....about 100 yds.....

    Owner of the Bronco was also the owner of the land we were hunting on......so it was kinda....
    "How good are you with that rifle... ?"...all of us realizing it was a looooog walk down to camp if he hit something vital....LOL

    No one wanted to take the chance.....so it just the "Hood ornament" flew away.....

    Now it would not have hurt the looks of the Bronco....not much left of the body anyway...couple of windows were cardboard.......turning tight corners involved leaning the door on the inside of the turn....then spinning the wheel make a "square turn" ...but it did run pretty well up there.

    Just a word of advice. Run the hose BEFORE turning on the wipers. Trust me on that.

    For my truck its usually the neighborhood cats.

    It's funny to come out to the truck the day after I apply RainX to the windshield......they probably thought they were on a ski jump judging by the paw streak marks.

    This particular hen is spoiled rotten. She likes to be hand fed her treats and feels she is supposed to get some treat as a reward every time I head for the truck and especially every time I arrive home.

    I think she is about ready to go to the next step and start riding to the grocery to pick them out herself.

    I came home from the grocery with a large load the other day and left the door of the car open while I carried some groceries inside and caught her about the jump into the vehicle.

    She also likes to sit around and have nice conversations with you and she makes a great supervisor of yard work and projects.

    Doh! Sounds like a F.A.R.T. team intervention. I'll see if I can find the list and start making calls. We have a list, right?

    That's hilarious. I have lots of friends with chickens and it's not unusual to see any of their kids carrying one around loving on it.

    If you have a bunch of hens, there is always one that does that. She is also generally in charge of the rest of them.

    You need a new "trail name" Wise old Chicken.
