Expert 636  Torrington,CT | Subject: RE: long hot summer You know I think I would put up with a few snakes to get your kind of weather. It's seems like here in CT, where alway waiting for the perfect day, or the temp to go up, or the humidity to come down. As far as I'm concerned anything over 30 degrees is a good day, and we haven't had much of those this winter. Right now it is in the low 40's, but we are having snow showers, Yech!!!!!!!!! Oh well, I guess I'll pray to the weather Gods to hopefully bring in a real Spring. Evelyn  Edited by evrunning 2004-04-07 9:36 AM |

| , Alabama | Subject: RE: long hot summer We've never had a rattler, but we once had an alligator in our yard (~5' long). It then went across the street and CLIMBED the neighbor's 4' chain link fence! That's when they call the trapper. Sharon |

| Expert 1164 New Port Richey | Subject: RE: long hot summer Alligators are cool. When I was stationed in Georgia we had one in the pond next to my barracks. I used to go over and watch him all day long. He would let me get within a couple of feet of him before taking off to a different part of the pond. He was only about 4 and 1/2 feet long. When the trappers came to relocate him they had a 11 footer in back of their truck. He was sedated and tied up so I got to touch him. They said he was too big to relocate so he was going to become someones shoes and handbag.  Edited by kgart 2004-04-08 2:33 PM |

| Member 25 Rockwall, TX (Dallas area) | Subject: RE: long hot summer Do you ever run up Iron Mountain in Poway? If so...there's a big snake up there that likes to wait under a bush right off the main trail just before the big climb starts. I was coming down that trail a couple of years ago...It was in May I think...my wife was running behind me...and with no warning this monster rattle snake actually struck at me. I just saw a flash out of the corner of my eye...but she saw it clearly...said it missed my left leg by about two inches. We stopped a safe distance away and took a look at it...five or six feet...rattling...and not happy. I always thought you had to be stomping through the brush for one to go at you...but I was right in the middle of an 8 foot wide trail. Lesson learned. Don |
