Road Trip
OK, I'm a bit of a freak, I know, but I like to play "Name that dead animal" while driving long distances.
Here's how it goes: When you see something on the road or along-side the road, something like a lump, or just some dark blob, and you realize it probably is some road kill of some sort, then you try to guess what it is while you're still pretty far away from it. The farther away from it that you can figure out what it is, the more points you get, or if you can get others in the car to play too, who ever can guess first gets more points.
(But like that British improv show that most Americans think Drew Carey invented, which also makes a great party game, the points don't really matter.)
Mainly it's just another way to pass the time on a long car ride.
So this weekend, the road trip animal count was:
2 racoons
1 skunk
2 pheasants (one male, one female)
4 other birds (one dove under our tire)
0 bear &/or trashbag
3 unidentifiable
and
1 deer. nice big doe. waste of meat.
Don't normally get a deer. Never got a pheasant. Must be huntin' season. Somewhere.
