It’s the middle of rattlesnake season here on the ranch. The local news anchor confirmed it. I’ve seen two already. While driving along our dirt road yesterday, I mistook a virulent enemy for a branch. I backed up the car, looked again and noticed the branch shifted revealing a rattle at its end. At one of our road association meetings in the barn, Shelby stood up and shouted, “ BOB !” to my next door neighbor. He’s our vice president and the one all eyes were on as he gave a presentation in the middle of the room. I sensed fear in the way she yelled his name. I learned after the meeting that Shelby called out to him like that because she saw a rattler slither in the barn door where she and I sat. Bob yielded to the interruption and quietly dispatched the enemy. Ten minutes later, this tough guy was back to center stage falling right back in step with the business at hand. Bob is my new best friend. ...

OH wouldn't that be awesome? LOL. That's too funny.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday to you!
As Will Smith said in Independence Day, (after staring the alien ship)
ReplyDelete"I have got to get me one of these!"
I love it! That was hilarious. I didn't see that coming.
That would be so cool!! Thanks for stopping by! Have a blessed weekend!!
ReplyDeleteThat would be soooo cool cause I'd never have to look for a close parking space again.
ReplyDeleteI loved it...maybe in our future :-)
Happy Friday!
Giggle. What on earth? I definitely don't want one of these. Do you know how fast I'd lose it??
ReplyDeleteThat is definitely an invention for a woman. A man would never want that because they like everyone to see what they are driving! haha
ReplyDeleteSweet! :D
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
I want one!
