Snakes and Spiders and things that crawl

We were taught very young that if that happened to lay there still until someone else sees it and removes it.
We told that to a friend once where we were camping because that was one of the places I got bit by a rattle snake.
The next morning he was laying on his side still in his sleeping bag and a blue jay flew up from behind him and landed on his bare shoulder.
He ripped that sleeping bag to pieces getting up and running screaming like a little girl.
I laughed so hard I could barely catch my breath. :D



Cruel! That brings up another thing. Around here we are able to enjoy outdoor life with no regard for things like that. Not the same in the south.
