I've been in Indiana now for over two years. It's still an adjustment and I am ever learning more about the Midwest. Last night at a chip and dip party (best idea ever), Kyle and I tried to form a bridge of understanding over turkey hunting.
Moi: When's your next hunting trip?
Kyle: I'm going turkey hunting in two weeks.
Moi: So... how is turkey hunting different from shooting deer? Is it hard?
Everyone (mostly Sean, laughing): You are struggling so hard right now to know what to ask.
Kyle: Well, it's really easy in the spring because it's mating season, so the males will come out once you call and they think it's a female.
Moi: So you're laying out thirst traps for the males. And they'll come running out because they're thirsty? This is language that I can understand now.
