Charlie,

Those folks back in the hills take snakes to church.   They figure that you won't get bit if you are pure of heart.

I shoot snakes.  My fear is that the word would get around.  :D

I was actually more worried about my meticulously stacked slabs becoming disshevelled. :D Then the pile would look like the rest of the yard, and I wouldn't know where to put anything! :D
I found a clutch of 16 or so snake eggs in the sawdust pile a few months ago. Tried to relocate them, but they didn't make it :'( Most likely rat snakes, though.
I wish we'd had a little more time to set and talk, but I really did enjoy the time we had. :)
Yes, Dismal is a rather lovely place. I do believe it was named in February, though. :D

Here's an early morning from our bedroom window:



I'm glad the kudzu hasn't reached us yet, and I hope it never does. It was originally imported for erosion control, as a cover crop, right? They later imported a beetle to control it, but that beetle is now known as the pine bark beetle.  ::) Now, stands of dead pine are becoming as common as kudzu jungles. So what did they bring over to eat the bark beetles? Yep... asian nine spotted beetles.  >:(
That bigfoot character is a bit of a pest- he keeps borrowing my shoes and wearing them out. Says he can't find 'em in size 14 anywhere else. :D

George.... If you didn't have so much turned under for feet you would be a lot taller. ;D
just another beaver with a chainsaw &  it's never so bad that it couldn't get worse.
