Just a little trail weirdness…

Well…haven’t done one of these in a while but just wanted to relay one little part of weird that happened today…on one of the downhills that ends in a sharp corner, I came upon a bunch of turkeys that were walking on the trail and they just took off running right down the trail in front of me…not flying, but running until they could get off into the brush…it was one of the strangest things I’ve seen in a while and they can move quite fast….but, why not fly? I know they can…maybe I’m just not threatening enough…oh, one last thing, a group of turkeys is called a rafter…had to ask the phone….that it could understand what I wanted was pretty cool…
