Dear Terry, Oh boy, yesterday there was some big excitement with The Girls. First, I didn't hurt any chickens.  I mean, first, no chickens were hurt! Mom had them out and about before work. She said she needed to pull some weeds pulled so she was pulling weeds and The Girls were eating bugs and weeds with her. Mom put The Girls back in their house and we did all the usual stuff to get Mom ready for work. I kept hearing The Girls. They are pretty quiet unless they are really happy or really mad. They sounded happy so I didn't say anything. And I didn't tell Mom that I could see them from the front window. Mom left for work, only she didn't. She got out the front door and saw The Girls strolling along the driveway back by the neighbors!! The Girls had ESCAPED! Mom knew just what to do. She went to the garage and grabbed the bag of bugs that they like so much and shook the bag. Marge! Lisa! Oh they came running down the driveway! Good Girls! But they got sidetracked by bugs in the honeysuckle. Mom went back the drive and picked up Margie and walked back down with her. Lisa FLEW the whole way. She's very flappy and it always looks like she is going to crash land somewhere. She landed safely on her feet right next to Mom. I saw it all! First I could see out the front and then I could see out the side. I was trying to tell Dad but he had fallen asleep and missed all the excitement! Mom had forgotten to shut one of the doors on the coop and The Girls were out and about on their own for a long time. All morning!! We have to be careful with The Girls because of the neighbor's cats. I guess The Girls can fend for themselves!! They were very happy all day long.
