Spring means nature's babies

     I got over yesterday's vacation of slothfulness and got myself out of doors this morning.  I was rewarded by seeing two baby rattlesnakes on the sidewalk, half a mile apart.  They were just sunning themselves and seemed pretty sluggish although the temps were in the 70's.  They were only 6-8 inches long, but I kept my distance.  Surprisingly enough, they don't scare me too much anymore. (Knock on wood).
