Speaking of Wild Turkeys, as I was returning to work after lunch today,
5 flew (barely) across the road THROUGH heavy traffic on Middlebrook
Pike where it cuts through the gap on Beaver Ridge and magically
becomes Hardin Valley Rd (ok, it was once more complicated than that
but when they four-laned all of it, it just became one continuous
stretch of road that changes name along the way). AAANYWAAAAY...
I said 'through' traffic because they were literally at or below
windshield level and several cars had to stop to let them pass.
Folks in the other cars were giving some great looks and I would
have loved to hear what they were saying and thinking. Probably
"Turkeys can fly?"
