Title: Back from vacation!!
Post by: bowrebel on August 15, 2010, 07:54:13 PM

Made it back last night, tired and sore but ready to do it again!! Had to do a little work around the place, but got some fishing, swimming and siteseeing in. Here are a few pics:
Vacation always starts with my son and his 4-wheeler:

Then a night by the camp fire. This is my son and a friend of his.

Monday was my wifes birthday, so we had a little cookout.

Then the excitement began. We found a rattler in the yard. He got into a rocky area before we could do anything, so I called my cousins and they caught the sucker and removed it.

Had the Cherry River fesival going on, but I did not take any pics at the parade. Also caught some beautiful native trout, but I catch and release so no pics of those either, but here is a pic of one of the rivers

Lou, lets just say I watched where I stepped the rest of the week.  *up* He was 30 to 34 inches long, which is an estimate since I did not really care how long it was, I just wanted the dang thing in the cooler and gone!! I HATE SNAKES!! Found a small snake in the house also, wife had to take it outside before I shot it.  *lol* *aah*
