It's been awhile...

I know it has been awhile since my last post.....but what can I say I have been busy! The holiday, the moving, the unpacking, the float trip, more unpacking, and now the upcoming party.

Something happened Monday that every time I think about it, I start laughing. Bill brought a back hoe home to do some work. I was in the house unpacking when Kenny said to come outside. Bill wanted me. So when I got out there, Bill said he had found a rattlesnake. My first thought was Missouri does have a rattlesnake, but it is very unlikely to actually ever see one, but I will give him the benefit of doubt. So I start digging around, and I find Bill's "rattlesnake". It was a little bitty garden snake about 8 inches long, and thinner than my pinky finger. I laughed at him, picked up the little snake a put him in the woods so Bill could get back to work. I have never met anyone so scared of a little, and I mean little snake.

I would have been screaming my head off. I never want to see a snke again. Having one swim between my feet this past weekend almost gave me a heart attack.

I agree with Bill. All snakes are bad snakes! YUK!
