Snakes and snails and puppy dog tails!

Brian went out with a friend from Idaho Fish and Game this weekend to do a "Rattlesnake Round-up." Basically they are trying to kill some of the rattlesnakes that live in the hills behind our homes. They got a few complaints last year about rattlesnakes in people's yards....yikes! They ended up beheading about a dozen snakes and then brought them back to our house to show the boys. The creepy thing is the snakes can keep moving for several hours even without their heads....yuck! Anyway, the boys thought it was pretty cool to hold the headless snakes as they continued to slither around!

The boys will sure miss your neighborhood! Glad Brian was on the "Neighborhood Snake Watch". Saving lives one rattlesnake at a time!
