Hidey hoe neighbors, hope everyone is having a good week. I’m feeling much better so its not been to bad for me. Glad to see the weekend roll around. I don’t have any earth shattering news or information to share tonight, just wanted to stop and say hi and share a couple of photos.
I came upon this rattle snake a few nights ago on my way home. Actually I was home but still in the road and there he was. Mind you I am actually a snake lover, but to have a rattle snake this size roaming around my house, I just couldn’t let it happen. So I managed to kill it and decided I would take some pictures. He hung off both sides of the tail gate just a little and had 9 rattlers and a button. To me this seemed like not many considering the size of the snake, but none the less that’s what he had. He was every bit as big as my upper arm (being a big girl, I have big arms). Anyway here are a couple of pictures of it. The one picture I tried to get from over the top of him so you could appreciate the diameter of his body.

Well guess I will bring it to a close, hope everyone has a wonderful and safe weekend….

Take care and God bless.
