Gobble Gobble

As my girlfriends and I sat around my kitchen this evening eating a delicious dinner and doing some long overdue catching up, my attention was suddenly diverted to ‘something HUGE’ that seemed to fall into the backyard.  Not wanting to interrupt the conversation, I moved into the other room to get a better look at what I assumed was a cat – a big cat – that had made it’s way onto our property.

I felt like it took a few seconds for my eyes to process what I was seeing before screaming to the girls that there was a turkey in my backyard.  Yes, you read that right.  A turkey.

Chaos ensued as we all scrambled to get our cameras and cellphones before he flew off.  But to our surprise, he found himself a comfy spot on our rickety old fence and let the paparazzi get their fill before heading to the front yard and down the street.

I wonder how far he made it.  Hopefully all the way back home, where ever that may be.
