Back off Wytstang! Step away from the gun! Put it down and just walk away. Besides that looks like a Doe (?sp) you would want a big Buck!

Oh them people from South Carolina! :D
 
Wow Tonya, I can see that you are getting quite a workout trying to get rid of all those. They look awesome, but that had to make your arms quite tired.

Thanks for the pictures though, a little taste of home. What's the temperature been like there lately?

Today the high was about 76, and I washed and polished the chrome on my motorcycle for a few hours in preparation for a charity ride tomorrow. Later in the evening I drove my Chevelle up to a car show to check out the cars there and test out my new working speedometer ;) Now I get to track down a minor oil leak that my garage floor has warned me about. :(
 
It's almost reached 50 today, sunny and very little wind! A good day to work in the yard! Good luck with the leak!
 
Wow Tonya that's a lot of leaves. I heard sometimes there's snails in those piles of leaves...is that true? Must be nasty to jump in a pile of leaves and find a snail or twenty :p.

No... not really, unless the leaves are wet. Then you might get some of those slimy guys. They don't bother me. It's the snakes that freak me out! If I don't see them before they see me. :eek: But there are very few poisionous snakes in Ohio. So I try to stay calm :D With it this cold they are almost all tucked away somewhere staying warm. Perhaps the very bottom of the compost pile :eek:

:eek: SNAKES aw man. I like snakes when they're behind glass in the zoo or in the pet store :p. I'd freak out if I saw a snake poking out of a pile of leaves.

Beautiful tree thanks for the pic. As for the snake... as long as I see them before I am right next to them... I am OK. But if I suddenly looked up and saw that guy... well I would do my best to slowly and calmly walk away. He looks like he might spring into action and try to have me for a snack :eek: What kind is it?
 
Such beautiful trees! Our tress here have fall color for a day or two. It was a high of 82 today (11/13)! Whats up with that?!

Is that really a snake in that tree? I would soil my pants if I saw that thing.

I've never seen that many leaves.

Jimmie that is just the beginning. That might be 20 to 25% of the leaves. My work has just begun ;)

:iagree: like I said, as long as I see them before I am right up on them I am OK. But that guy would have freaked me out if I suddenly looked up an saw him hanging out over my head. :eek: I grew up out in the county. I use to have to pick them up and move them when I would mow the grass. I got to the piont I would not use a stick to move them. I would just grab them by the tail and fling them out of the way. The only thing you would have to worry about in Ohio is a rare rattle snake and a very rare water moccasin... those guys are mean!!!! Oh yeah... copper heads too! :eek: Good rule of thumb is to stay away from any water snake.
From the looks of that guy... I think I would leave him alone. :D

heheheh hahahahaha Sure...I have heard of Lima. I grew up in an even smaller town just down the road from you. Have you ever heard of Bethel, just out side of Tipp City. A really small town, I think Bethel has 3 traffic lights now. :D Whitethunder is very close to where I live now!

He's just a blacksnake, good guy. We do have lots of copperheads, though. I originally found the snake when I lifted the cover of the hottub and he was laying under it. That was kind of a surprise. He crawled out into the tree you see in the picture.
 
I HATE SNAKES!! Glad we don`t have any were I live :D

You have to be kidding me! You found him in you inside the hot tub or under the hot tub structure? Either way... I don't think I would be going in the hot tube first :eek: I bet that was "kind of a surprise" !!!! :eek:
