What's weird you may ask. You know when you drive out of the city to visit friends or family, or just for a scenic drive, you see all sorts of stores lining the roads hoping to entice shoppers with the interesting wares they put out for us to see? Of course you do. In Muskoka you can see gazebos, outdoor furniture, and the occasional moose. We window shop each summer. On our most recent drive (not to Muskoka), we passed a number of antique stores, not at all unusual. At these stores you can see a similar array of interesting goods. There are car parts, banners, furniture, windows, all sorts of detritus. Today I saw a giant chicken. Yes, a giant chicken sculpture at a store by the side of the road. It looked like a fat Foghorn Leghorn. "Huh, that's interesting," I said to myself, and gave it no more thought. Later on the drive we passed a second antique store in a beautiful old house with a wrap-around porch. Leaning against the porch steps was a second giant chicken. This one a metal sculpture of the Kellogg rooster a full story high. "Wow, that's weird," I said aloud, and I was right. You don't often see even one giant chicken in a day, let alone two.
Sean's only question, "Do you think he knows the Long Island Duck?"
What began as a compilation of experiences during the Gorman family's time with the military, from active duty in Hawaii, to the reserves and a reserve deployment, has moved beyond. It's the ups and downs, the transitions, the frustrations, and the joys of every day. In 2016, blogging more than Jennifer, Gandalf & Nora took over as the primary bloggers, with Jennifer as a background narrator.
