Fathers - the more they tried to discourage us, the more determaned we became. 1949 - my dad took me and a buddy for a hike and we had no sooner got out of the car and he came face to face with a rattler --- BACK in THE CAR and home. I didn't even get to see it.
We got on our bikes and went back, I wasn't about to miss out on my first rattlesnake. It was still there when we returned and using a stick and a piece of twine (lots of practice as we used wild oat nooses to catch blue-belly lizards) we noosed it and got in a box. I had that snake for a year with out my dad knowing.
Pete
