Patti Jares (Wickenburg, AZ) Rattlesnake Bite Postcard

Now, here it is June 25th, 2010 and I asked John lil' after 7 if we can go for an evening walk. He was resistant (tired) yet we did because I wasin pain & bloated. And about almost 1 hour out on the trail I almost stepped on this fella'. I do not think it is postcard worthy yet it does mark my one year anniversary so who cares making me 1 card but buyer beware it is dark time & photo clarity is not there. You thought I was going to beware you about the most dangerous rattler...well, it seems I see them alot. I have had now many folks see me walk right over them and to this day I will never forget Frankie stating "JOY"...I said "what?"...you have a speckled rattlesnake right under you...I had walked right over the fella'...I just do not get it because some tell me it is because I walk the desert but I have had to relocate off my own property & on the asphalt walks so it is not just the desert...snke magnet Joy. I do not even eagle eye look for them as you can see if I end up stepping over them. I do not even want to see them yet I do...nuts huh. I will email Snake Master for proper identification on what snake this is and later post it in comment wall.
