Ok.........................you are far braver than I.

This would be my "Daily" wardrobe of choice if I was in your area of known poison snakes.

Lol! If the Lord means for me to be bit, I'll be bit. If the Lord doesn't, I'm fine, so I just tend not to worry about things too much.

The neighbors kill six foot long rattlesnakes constantly, every year. Copperheads are a dime a dozen too.

The farmer cut our hay fields yesterday. I plan on detecting the fields once he's done baling.

Speaking of the Lord, I have to get ready for church. I will leave you with this inspiring video that I saw on tv last night. Have a blessed day!

I live in the Stix and I never see a copperhead or rattled just King and rat snakes. But i have a pet chipmunk too.

I hated baling hay. Besides my allergies as a youth, the amount of snakes that were in those bales was staggering. But RR, "IF" you could reduce the odds of being bitten, why wouldn't you ? I don't gamble, but it seems to me that what you are doing is a gamble. Oh well, like that Progressive Insurance commercial, I am NOT your dad. ( But still....I am just saying ).

 

[Simon1]

And your pet chipmunk has a girlfriend Rook ?

I'm not afraid of snakes. I just watch where I'm going, and carry on with my business.

Have you not taught chippy some morals?

 

[Simon1]

Makes one wonder, ( at least I do ), how many civil war deaths were attributed to snake bites ?

Chippy use to have a harem of 12, so he has cut back
