I like seeing the little ones that just scamper into the woods...hope you, Abby, and all had a safe and joyful day.

Might even call that a "rafter" of turkeys - that size. :)

Happy B-day to Abby.

That's a lot of turkeys. Any of them chase you?

Happy Birthday to Abby.

No Jon, but being in City Creek I did thing that it would have been fairly easy for the first Mormon pioneers to find Thanksgiving dinner!

You are correct Bret - rafter it is!
