Wanted to let the community know that Nick discovered a rattle snake, coiled and ready to strike, in the woods behind our house. This is a dark and somewhat damp part of our property so he was quite surprised to see it there. But there is lots of tasty vermin in that area. Fortunately, our dog, Maggie, responded to Nick and they got the heck out of there. Just wanted to warn folks, they are not just in the rocks or sunny, dry spots.
