Speaking of rattlers! Hey Mark BC , remember that time over on that desert over look on the  east side of the Steens- Rush Creek(?)-Ya know it was not to much after my faithful border collie Bob, got bit on the head by a rattler over by "Donner and Blitzen "Creek, and I was telling you how he never forgot about being bit, and would   go on snake patrol as soon as soon as camp was set up.   I remember we just sat there and watched him as he walked back and forth in the sage and after a while, we wandered out to see what he found and yep-he found a snake-wasn't a rattler, just a garter snake-I think, been a while.  he didn't kill it or anything-just wanted know if  snakes were around I guess!  Allot of the places we go, we need a good snake dog!

As mentioned earlier, I have an unfounded irrational issue with snakes, particularly buzztails. Yikes, sends shivers down my spine! Jill has already encountered several this year while riding Willow. One actually slithered under the horse as they were meandering up a trail. Hills surrounding Camarillo, Ventura County.
