Our School Smells

Our school is located in Fredericksburg aka "Chicken Capital USA". Therefore our school always smells like dead chickens. Right near our school is a huge chicken plant, where I'm told hundreds of chickens are slaughtered everyday. Gross, right? Well the stench isn't too terrible typically. We get used to it. Some days are worse than others, and it seems to be stronger around the tennis courts, but I have no idea why. Anyway, today there was a very interesting and out of the ordinary stench. It was poop. But not just a faint sent of a diaper or anything, it smelled like there was liquid manure poured all over the school, and more specifically the English hallway. Some suggested that it was spreading manure from the nearby fields, but I think that even an immense amount of that stuff couldn't be as powerful as what we inhaled all day today. Distracting, to say the least.
