This is pretty much where I am.

I hunted rattlers for their hides years ago, and somewhere along the way I learned they are about as innocuous as any creature can be....so they get a pass from me unless they are about to sink teeth into me or a dog. More misconceptions about Rattlers than any other single creature. ( and tall stories...)
