Only in Texas....



When we were walking through the capital I spotted a crazy looking guy (he looked like ZZ Top, ya'll) and he had a snake in his hand. We went to the courtyard and peeked outside the door and this is what we saw....RATTLESNAKES!!! They were the guys from the Sweetwater Rattlesnake Roundup. It's really popular up north. I've only heard of it but never been. I try to avoid snakes as much as possible. Just like a little boy my husband had to rush outside and get a few pictures. I was not happy with him being that close to a bunch of pissed off rattle snakes. Try to explain that one to the E.R.. That would be our luck; we would make the news for sure, "Texas man falls into a pit of rattle snakes at state Capital." Thankfully we made it out alive. I tell ya; they are a bunch of rattlesnakes down at the capital. Hee, hee...that was political joke. Ok, that was a bit cheesy.

Yeah, I wasn't down with the snakes either. I stood by the glass door. When people would ask me why they had snakes I told them that they were a visiting church from Oklahoma, hee, hee.
