Great story. I suspected a snake bite when you said you were barefoot and he had gone off into the bushes. We don't have poisonous snakes here. I have heard tales of timber rattlers from the past, but never seen one and hope I never do. I absolutely detest snakes and even a small grass snake makes me head the other way. My oldest brother lives in Florida and I can't imagine what that must be like. I know he has had snakes get inside his house before, fortunately they were not poisonous. He lived in one place that had a lake out back that had a giant water moccasin living in it. One morning he went out and a female neighbor was outside sitting in a lawn chair with a loaded shot gun waiting to kill it.

I remember going to Georgia to visit my cousins one summer and we went barefoot, but I was constantly on the lookout for snakes. From Georgia we went to Alabama to Dauphin Island where we camped. Every morning I would get up early and walk down to the gorgeous sandy beach that went on forever. To get to the beach you had to walk through a "jungle" type area. Once I got through that I would kick off my shoes and walk through the sand barefoot and wade in the ocean. On our last day there we all went down to the beach and as we were walking through the "jungle" I mentioned to my aunt that I was always relieved to get out of there and onto the sand. That's when she informed me that they had coral snakes that are extremely poisonous. Glad I didn't know that before, I wouldn't have gone anywhere.

By the way, Pete I am a former redhead myself. My hair was a dark red, or auburn. My youngest brother was more ginger. I had several red headed cousins, including those in Georgia. I actuallyn used to think I was adopted when I was small because I looked nothing like my older brothers. They were slim with brown hair and I was stocky with red hair. As I got into my teens I slimmed down and could actually wear their clothes and the older we have gotten the more we look alike.

Anxious to hear the rest of the story.
