Vacation

Since I have been on vacation there are no deer pics, so ill post a few pics from the cruise. This is key west where we docked the first day.
This is a big a** cookie that we got in down town key west.
This is the big a** boat we were on. It holds like 4000 people.
This is the dock at Cozumel Mexico. This is a few pics of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Belize city, Belize. It has 12 foot fences around it. That tells you about how the city is.

I'll tell you that a cruise is nice but a 5 night and 6 day is too much. I couldn't walk straight for 2 days.

Snakes

This is a pygmy rattlesnake. It looks pretty close to the one I almost stepped on Friday evening as I was walking to my stand to hunt. That reminds me of a story. About 6-7 years ago no wait more like 9-10 years ago Me my brother and Josh were squirrel hunting at the club and we walked right by a diamondback rattlesnake. We turned around and there he was. We must have stepped right over him. we killed the snake and took it with us so I could ski it for the hide. I don't know how many people have killed a snake before but they still move long after you kill them. So josh(Amanda"s husband) decides that it would be a good idea to pick it up and throw it at me when I'm turned around. The snake landed around my neck. They said I turned 6 shades of white. This was no small snake probably 3-4 feet. I have chills right now as i type. I hope he feels bad about it. I have a complex now.
