As I write my final stories I continue to look up info so that I can include it in stories. I am currently writing about chicken poop on the farm. I have always wondered WHY it stunk so so so bad. Cleaning the chicken house was the worst. I found the answer this morning, perhaps an answer most people know. Chicken poop is very high in nitrogen and as that decomposes it emits ammonia gas. I think I knew the smell was ammonia but I did not know why--now I know and I am happy.
I also found out where the term "shot glass" came from but will leave the answer for others to find it!!
I am thinking I need 2 pots of FP this morning as I have an hour tennis clinic, an hour and a half match and then this afternoon an hour team practice. Maybe I should pray for rain!!
