It appears that the fire done nothing to dimish the rattle snake population. However we haven't seen any since we got back. Now with the rains it seems they are everywhere. I normally don't wear my hearingaids when I out in the yard but I did hear my wife yell "STOP". Wondering what I had done wrong I turned and looked at her. She pointed off to my right, about 3 feet away was little little guy just rattling up a storm - which I never heard.

No :nono: No he wont be Jerry. Not even a little bit.
You better watch your sixes John, if she can hear them that far away and you cant that close. :holdon:
That one doesn't look too "little" to me! You need to strap a six shooter with bird shot in it to your side when you go on jaunts outdoors.
