Here, Chicky, Chicky!

My trip to Maui to see Varla Jean Merman's Hawaiian debut was fun, and strange. Because of a symphony night, the last of my season, I didn't arrive on Maui until the day of Varla's performance.
"Oh, this is Maui! Nobody gets dressed up...you'll be hideously overdressed if you wear anything more than shorts!"
"You didn't pack any socks, did you?"
"Oh, do you want to see the chickens? You can help me feed them."
"Have you ever held a chicken before? Here!"
"You should have seen the look on your face when I passed you that chicken! Hysterical!!
And that is how I came to see Varla Jean Meraman's show dressed for a chicken ranch.
