This summer my mother, who is exceptionally quiet, encountered rattlesnakes three times. She killed them with a shovel.<br /><br />We are from Pennsylvania originally, so we've had a crash-course in the ways of these snakes. Early on my dad killed a bull snake, which we now know was a mistake; bull snakes eat rattlesnakes. We're now learning to think of some snakes as friends to cultivate & others as enemies -- rather than thinking, as we did in PA, that all snakes are harmless pests.Jennifer (ponderosa)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17712875613623664156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9799907.post-76931081455807172812009-08-25T11:33:31.960-04:002009-08-25T11:33:31.960-04:00Oh, that's cool that I have readers who rememb...Oh, that's cool that I have readers who remember the snake dreams I've written about.<br /><br />Paige: We don't have any dangerous snakes here either.

But this post made me think about my own feelings towards them. I don't think of snakes as scary by default, but then, we don't have poisonous snakes in the Seattle area.<br /><br />Glad you're having fun.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10142826627831862044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9799907.post-70850524971809613892009-08-24T23:14:29.044-04:002009-08-24T23:14:29.044-04:00I was thinking the same thing as Moria-- I remembe...I was thinking the same thing as Moria-- I remembered you as being afraid as snakes.
