{So Enjoyed spending time with Allyson, and Bethany...today. <3

Priceless.

<3

Allyson, and I...hit The DQ, on our way Home. 

We Needed Sugar.

; )

Was thinking about 'Snake' stories...on the way Home. 

{That Huge Skin...kinda rattled me. ; ) }

Mom, told me one of the best.

While she was tending baby chicks, as a child, on the Farm...she spotted a Huge Bullsnake.

{He was there..to eat the baby chicks.}

Mom, had a pitchfork in her hands, she was cleaning pens.

Mom...stabbed the Snake... killed it, but...before it died...it curled all the way to the Top...of the pitchfork's handle...Mom was holding.

That's a Big...Snake.

Mom...was amazing. }
