Chasing chickens and other Key West critters to discombobulate the unaware
Sigh. It happened so subtly I was unaware. I have become that old lady who chases Key West chickens. Friday was a glorious island day. Sunny skies, summer-into-fall clouds, light breeze. You know the drill. I was neck deep in the pool listening to Zac Brown and...

That’s what I get for wearing flip flops on a chicken chasing.
