Well, calling for another 2 - 2.5” here with possible 5” in certain locations. But, there’s good news behind this front, future forecast shows no rain for at least 7 days after this!!

SW, you gotta extra room brother. I might snow ski over.

Glad to hear you're mending. You got critters to pile up.
No slouching. Slap some tobacco and duct tape on it and let's ride.


Blessings,
Mark

If he gets too bad I’ll make the trek across country to learn a few things. I’m sure he wouldn’t mind someone to carry traps or critters out. I’ve never water trapped anything and he definitely wouldn’t have to worry about me traveling to his spots. Free labor for teaching!!!

That aint a water snake. Thats a cottonmouth.

Most will stand their ground. Just lay there and open their mouth at ya. Have torn holes in beaver dams b4 and when the soumd of the pouring water started a cottonmouth appeared..almost at my feet....probably looking for food at the commotion.

I wouldnt say they are agressive, just not too scared of humans sometimes.

Bruce we use those little ins for fish bait. The pigmy is about the size our shell crackers like between Thanksgiving and the first of the year when they come up the river to spawn

Careful there Tex! Jealousy is a bad trait.

Are you sure it is jealousy? I think it has more to do with my toes that froze 3 days ago but then it got worse. Last night my sack froze and I am worried I will no longer be quite as "viable" once I thaw out

Hasn’t got out of the 50’s over here today. Y’all Cottonmouths are pale compared to ours. And they are the same way with fire. They don’t run from the burn, they head towards it. Guess looking for an easy meal or either the heat.
