Your Monday Chuckle

So I just get back home from the Post Office and I go to check on the wood boiler and it smells kind of like chicken cooking. I wonder why in the heck would I be smelling the smell of cooked chicken?

Turns out I had forgotten that earlier today, I had tossed a dead grouse into it to dispose of it!

Yesterday Huck discovered the dead bird, back in the woods behind the AL Cam. It was largely undamaged, except for a torn piece of flesh on it's belly, that Huck might have even done before I called him away. I do know that it was dead before Huck got to it, as we were in the area when he discovered it and Gracie saw him getting into it. I left it there, thinking that some predator would come along and have a nice meal last night, but it was still there in the same shape. So I tossed it into the boiler (ashes to ashes) this morning to get rid of it and make sure the dogs did not get into it.

I happen to know they taste like chicken too!

One spring I went to clean out the ashes from my woodburner. I opened the door and there was a duck in the chamber. It was still alive but all covered with ashes. It had flown down the chimney and could not get out. It was really in tough shape but I scooped it out with a shovel and took it to the coulee that runs through my yard and put it in the water. My then 11 year old daughter was quite traumatized by the whole episode. I went back and continued cleaning out my stove and kind of forgot about it. The next day I remembered and asked my daughter if the duck was O.K. She said it must feel better because it was sc@@@@@ ing another duck.
