: Well, it was bound to happen eventually, but Ripley was bitten by a rattlesnake a couple of days ago. Thank GOD she's ok but it was a near call. Since this happend I've spoken with some local doctors and vets (Eastern Sierra) and apparently there is an abundance of rattlesnakes this year due to the drought in our area. And cooinsidentally there is also a shortage of antivenom. I just wanted to give everyone a heads up, this year is the time to be especially careful!

It was 109 degrees taht day and we were a 2 1/2 hour hike away from help. Since then I wear a pair of gators that Jess bought me as a Christmas Gift!!!
