Spent all day in a Phoenix hospital visiting family, while awaiting word on the wife's grandfathers condition. He suffered a stroke last week, and has been in the hospital ever since. It doesn't look promising, but he seems to be comfortable. So after 330 miles, 13hrs we make it back to the ranch in time to find two rattle snakes in the yard. One Mojave green, and a Western diamondback. Shovel took the first, nasty punk tried to strike at me. The second lost his head to a well placed 9mm. They were small ones, estimating 12-16 inches. Sorry no photo, it was getting too dark...
Based in the Southwest follow along as we explore the Americas in our truck with our bird dog, taking pictures and writing stories.
