Monday, September 1, 2014 –

I headed outside to take some pictures of the sky. I was wearing my flip-flops and looking up, and noticed something a couple of feet from my foot out of the corner of my eye as I walked along. A rattlesnake was stretched out, totally oblivious of my presence. Maybe he was enjoying the evening, too. Unfortunately for him, I hollered for someone to bring a gun. Cim responded first, but then let Laredo do the honors because he had a better gun for the job. Needless to say, the snake’s evening ended on a bad note. But, I did get some great pictures of the clouds and sunset in the end.
