  1. A Story

    Share Share Post
    One night a man was coming from his ceildhe. When he came to his own gate there was a turkey crowing on the gate. He brought the turkey over to the house with him. The turkey stood quiet for a few minutes and then she started leaping up and down through the house. He thought it as better to leave her back so he went back with her and he never heard of her afterwards.
