It was hot enough to keep the process going. That's the beauty of it — it doesn't take a lot of effort.

When you're standing close and there's a fresh deer in it, you can smell it. But it doesn't take long for the smell to go away.

We created bins using three-foot high concrete barriers on an asphalt pad. Put down a layer of sawdust and chips, lay down the deer and cover them up with more sawdust. Let them compost for the summer, and by the end, [the process] is finished.

The maintenance crews use four-foot thermometers to monitor the mix. We need to reach 130 degrees for a minimum of three days; typically, we've been maintaining 150 degrees. When the temperature drops, it's time to turn the pile.

If you give it good concentration, good energy, good heart and good performance, the song will play you.

Good times don't last long sometimes.
