Rattlesnakes

This morning me, Shannon, Kim, and Kristen headed out for the mountains. We were going to hike at Red Rocks Park. Not too strenuous, but not too easy. Great idea...we thought. When we were about 20 min. from the top it started thundering and raining, so there we were, headed back down the mountain. (It's usually not wise to be at the top of a mountain during a thunderstorm. If you don't why this is, I'll explain at another time.) About 30 into heading back down the mountain we ran into some ladies going both directions that weren't moving at all. Turns out...there's a very angry rattlesnake on the trail. Oh yeah, don't you worry, we had just passed that snake not more than 1 min. earlier. So there we were...not going up or down. Needlesstosay, we made our own trail. Whoops, that's a little bit not good. Oh well, first time to see a rattlesnake and hopefully the last.

OH, and I was blessed immensely today by a big glass of wonderfully tasting sweet tea. Haven't had that in a while. Thanks Jamie.
