After they have had so many meetings over the last day or so after I spoke with them, the COA have agreed to send out a scout to see what they can see from the map I have drawn.
They feel it is worth it to try and spread our message outside of our farmyard and this scout is going to try and make a first contact.
And... and and and... they made a specific reference to my idea that if we can forge a tie with animals outside our farm then it may be worth it to see what I might be able to use that for in order to save my own skin before Thanksgiving.
And do you know who this scout will be?
Sally.
She is small enough to fit through the fence and the plan is that she is going to work very hard to memorize my maps and go to only the first farmhouse and then report back what she was able to find.
Such a brave little bird, what with foxes and all manner of other animals out there who would want to eat her, but she is proud to take on this responsibility.
She and I will be spending the next two days together and she is meant to leave early next week when she feels she is ready.

My friends, I am feeling something I have honestly not felt much of over the last few months.
That feeling is hope.
