A new back street has been carved through a forested area about a mile from our house. Several months ago, while driving along the isolated pavement, I faced a surprise and the answer to an age-old question.
As I passed over the hill, I saw a motionless rooster perched on the bright yellow line. I stopped the car and fumbled for my camera, but before I could grab a photograph, he strutted away.
And why did the chicken cross the road?
Chicks on the side.
