Well, I spoke too soon. About 3:00 this morning the dogs started barking. Finally, at 3:30, I got up on turned on the back porch light. There was a 3+ foot rattle snake laying next to the house, under the carport. I went to the barn and got a shovel. I got one good lick in before it slid under the underpinning and under the house. My shovel is now retired. I went to Wal-Mart and bought some rat-shot. No more mister nice guy! Now, I just have to find it under the house. Heeerrree, snakey, snakey. Hope I find it, before it finds me. Not much else happening. Hotter'n hell. Can't buy rain. Brent's dad at Big Spring got an inch and a half last night. Looks like it made it as far and Brownwood before it fizzled. More later, Rick.
