We dressed the chickens two weeks ago. That day dawned bright and beautiful. Cool, but not too cold. And later, warm, but not too hot. It was the kind of day that fooled the honeybees into coming out of their hives one last time before winter, only to learn one of lifes lessons: there is no nectar on a dead chicken carcass.
Today is a completely different kind of day. My patch of earth is covered in the slate grey of late November. It's the kind of day that reminds you that winter is coming. On days like this I often wonder what it is like to be an editor at media-centered gossip blog. Did they spend the last three months living the chicken life, scratching at the grass and eating the grubs that city life has to offer? Are they doing what they can to prepare for winter? Do they even know that winter is coming? Does Hamilton Nolan want one of my chickens?
