Turkey Trot


 
*New Post at Ether Capacious



Some folks down our way who ain't got enough cookin' to do on Thanksgivin' mornin' haul theyselves outa bed a dawn-thirty to race along the city boulevards dressed as turkeys.

 Some of our kin wuz up to this game, so Uncle an' me hitched up the buggy early morn an' hustled into the metropolis to see what thar wuz to see. Turns out, plenty.  Gobblers. Or pilgrims. Or  Indians.






Turkey Tutus, too....



 At wee-early hours it is COLD, blankets are understood...





 


The sun comes up an' what a pretty mornin'!

 


Lots 'o strange headgear....a Christmas light turkey head  observer.










 I jes' wonder...would any of y'all  let a strange lady snap  yore pic wif' bird on yore haid??
