I’m on the road today, traveling to be with friends whose son died unexpectedly this week. I left Doright Manor yesterday and should arrive at my destination in Oklahoma early this afternoon.
There was no time for stopping except for necessary stuff (gas, potty breaks, food) yesterday, but at one of those necessary stops I was delayed leaving by a mother hen and her chicks.


One little chick was under my car, while others were scurrying across the parking lot, but mama gathered all of her babies together and headed for safety. Because that’s what mamas do.
Peace, people.
A lovely, light-hearted moment

I hope you rolled down the window and asked them why they were all crossing the road!

Drive safely! Have you seen the video of the mama bear trying to get her three little offspring across the road? A riot!

Yes! I love that video. It didn’t look like she was going to be successful!

You’re the best good friend. Safe travels and I am glad that aside from the sorrow, you learned the answer to an age-old question…Why did the chicken cross the road? Love you.

Thank you! They were such a pleasant surprise on my journey. Now, if the chicks had stayed beneath my car much longer I might not have been so amused by them!
