terror is horrible and ever so irrational. I do not understand why snakes nor spiders spook me.

And always remember, life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by those moments that take our breath away.

Just the healthy old fight or flight response.

Mine nicely kicked in this summer when I almost stepped on a big beauty in my flip flops. As I opened the truck door, I heard that dry rattlle buzzing and thought, "What is that sound?" at the same that time I instantly stepped back, waaaaay back and thanked it for the warning.

We were sailing at Rattlesnake Dam in south eastern Alberta. We're used to rattlers and few people are bit. Did you know rattlers can swim?!!!
