of snakes in the valley who swindle peoples retirements. They are very cunning and hard to detect.

It is amazing that people living in a semi-arid climate like Utah are so surprised that rattlesankes thrive in this area. The people must develop common sense and be aware of the inherent danger involved in living in this climate.

Uh, Whiggy, it's not that people in Utah are "surprised" that there are rattlesnakes in the area; it's just that even a cautious hiker can't always avoid a rattler before it strikes. Those guys are fast.

Aprill is ninja fast. She is the only one fast enough to run around the world and punch herself in the back of the head. Well ok Chuck Norris can do it too but that only makes two. So seriously everyone watch out, the snakes can be faster then you think...

April, sorry that happened. Hope you get well quickly with no lingering effects.

Aprill I am sooooooooooooo glad you are okay, I couldn't believe it when your Mom called. I guess you have your Aunt's photography bug. Now I really do realize you shouldn't go hiking by your self. Take care, Love ya!!!
