Saturday At The Four-Way

Every Saturday, at this four-way stop in this small town, a guy comes to this corner, and sets up a chicken BBQ. All summer, he arrives at about 7:00 and starts cooking the chicken. The smell is torture if you spend too much time at the stop sign, it smells so good. Each week there is a different group that is selling the chicken. Scout troops, cheerleaders, church groups. They stand on the corners with signs, and wave.. They all take turns, and I am sure, are on quite a long list of fund raisers. Some of the chicken is taken to a town a few miles down the road, to the hardware store and is sold there.

What a great idea, and what a great thing this small town does, allowing this tradition to continue from year to year.
