Why Must There Always Be Snakes

When I went to the Garden of the Gods visitor center at Pike’s Peak in Colorado Springs a few weeks ago, this was the sign I was greeted with near the door. You may note is says, “Rattlesnake Presentation,” at 1:15.
I didn’t wait around for it. No doubt it involved some wisdom like, “Rattlesnakes are on the move,” and “If you poke at ’em you’re likely to get bit.” Since I’d already learned this at Palo Duro Canyon from Marvin some years ago, and have absolutely no intention of poking at any snake, I didn’t feel the need.

I’m delighted to say so far I’ve not seen any snakes this year, or been bitten by any. This is good. Very good..
