Ms. Henrietta Chickee was born nine months after her mother, "Grandma Hippie Chickee" participated in the famous Chickenstock Summer Festival of Universal Love. She spent most of her adult life in the harsh climate of a farm in Idaho. Finally, she'd had enough, and bolted to Florida to explore the sun and surf lifestyle. Flying by Bourlay Nature Center she spied a group having a BBQ lunch, and decided to join them. Flying can make a gal hungry, and she could smell the cornbread.

"What's This?" Awwwwwk!! They're serving BBQ'd WHAT??? Totally traumatized, Henrietta dove into the nearby trees and has been hiding there ever since. Poor Henrietta. We hope her mother, Grandma Hippie Chickee will be able to talk her into rejoining the flock.

NOTE: Henrietta carries the cache with her at all times, even though she's hiding out. Bring your own pen.
