One Beautiful Stinkin’ Morning

One thing about living out on this place, here I am sitting at the computer in the kitchen this glorious spring morning.  And this is what I look out to: 

 

Things are greening up beautifully after such a long, colorless winter.  And see the newly mowed pasture?  Nice.  Trees are budding.  Grass is lush.  There’s a just-right cool breeze blowing through the open door as the sun warms this side of the house.  Almost perfection….

if not for the dead whatever underneath

the screen porch.  

I kid you not, something’s dead and stinking so bad!!
