Ben - The Snake Hunter!!

This past weekend we were visiting with our family. They live on 6 acres which is heaven on earth for boys - especially 11 year old boys. Ben loves to feed the chickens and gather eggs. When he went down Sunday afternoon to feed them, he saw a snake move close to his feet. He did what he was supposed to and came and got his Uncle Rob. Rob & Ben (along with Jordan, Ellie & Joshua) dashed off to see it and low and behold it was a baby rattle snake! The rule on the property - rattler's die - other snakes live. So, here is Ben's dead baby rattle snake. He was so proud of himself! I on the other hand was a little freaked out!
