RRRRR - Rattlesnake!

While the Senator and theschoolboardmember
headed across the field to check out
some hay....
I stood around and watched the cows chew their cud. 
Then this little feller appeared!
He coiled.
I retreated.
Then I quietly stated,
"I think that is a rattler."
It's a long story,
but a cast iron griddle and an old magazine later,
we had that rattle!

(It's in a paper cup...drying out right now.)


For fear of anyone from PETA showing up on my doorstep,
I will refrain from telling you the part about how he/she got
smashed when I ran over him/her.
The Senator and theschoolboardmember decided
 they wouldn't ever want to get me really mad,
let's just put it that way.
I didn't mean it.
Really.
I didn't.


finally I'm back-to-bloggin'...

from the range, peace
