Well that was fun. I went, I saw my first rattlesnake, I came home. During the drive out there I was thinking about rattlesnake recipes. During the drive back the snake was undoubtedly thinking about gecko recipes. I'd like to say I came away from this episode without injury, but unfortunately when I mentioned to the other half that we should take the kids out there to distract the snake, she hit me with a shoe. Thanks everyone for educating this urban gecko about desert creatures. :-) --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
