#1. wear boots in grass
as i stood barefoot in the grass today, a snake slithered right past my foot. ivan was close by relieving himself. he was a bit startled as the snake approached him. he didn’t notice the snake but seemed to be some what alarmed by my blood curdling scream as the snake made it’s way toward him. i may have scared the snake as well because i don’t even think he noticed ivan was peeing on him as he slithered right through ivan’s legs.
#2. i don’t ever want to be a cow
seriously, could you stand this for even 10 minutes?
these cows are having a serious meeting. presumably about the fly situation.

In my neck of the woods, it’s not just snakes to worry about! It’s ticks too!

no kidding on the tick thing. . . . i pulled one off ivan (my dog) yesterday – i thought he was growing a grape.

Great shots! Glad you both avoided being bitten by the evil serpent. The flies are sickening but that’s country living. The barn and cow pies must be ripe in the summer heat by now. 😉
