Whole family did the Rocky Springs archaeology/expedition/picnic/hike in the creek a couple weekends ago. Found some nice agates, fossils, and petrified wood. Also found the prettiest snake I've ever seen. It was a fat little 12" copperhead with an attitude. He posed for a couple pics:

Josh stepped on the head of a huge cotton mouth down there. He was running so fast it didn't have a chance to strike. We only saw it after the fact. scary.
 
Absolutely beautiful place, but keep your eyes open!
 
Prettiest snake I ever seen was a dead one.
 
Also found the prettiest snake I've ever seen.

You are right, that thing is beautiful. The last year or so, I've been noticing that when I see snake pictures or real snakes, I've been noticing how beautiful they are as opposed to how fast i can kill it. Don't get me wrong, ANY snake gibs me da heebi jeebi's, but I suppose the older I get, the more i appreciate things like that.

The cool thing about this ones markings is that I can't make out the head perfectly... which I suppose is exactly why they have the markings they do... STRIKE
 
That was the first poisonous snake that I didn't at least try to kill.
 
No need to kill em in the wild unless they be approachin my tent.
The ones I laid the beat down on are the ones that were in my yard.

No strikey my Nike !
 
Where is Rocky Springs?

Its a 50 minute ride south down the Trace from the 55/Trace interchange.

Bet you could get some awesome pics down there Nolen.

Club ride? I can actually exceed the speed limit on the Trace!
 
I want to go down there to Lorman to the fried chicken place so we can make it a food trip/club ride.

We could cruise to Lorman, have lunch, back north to the springs, and cruise back home. Lets do it before it gets too hot.
 
Y'all might has seen or even posted this before worth reading again..

*AN ACTUAL CRAIG'S LIST PERSONALS *AD
To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in *Downtown Savannah night before last.
Date: 2010-09-27, 1:43 a.m. *E.S.T.
I was the guy wearing the black *Burberry jacket that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you *pulled the knife on me and my girlfriend, threatening our lives. You also *asked for my girlfriend's purse and earrings. I can only hope that you *somehow come across this rather important message.
First, I'd like to apologize for *your embarrassment; I didn't expect you to actually crap in your pants *when I drew my pistol after you took my jacket.. The evening was not that *cold, and I was wearing the jacket for a reason.. my girlfriend was happy that I just *returned safely from my 2nd tour as a Combat Marine in Afghanistan .. She *had just bought me that Kimber Custom Model 1911 .45 ACP pistol for my *birthday, and we had picked up a shoulder holster for it that very *evening. Obviously you agree that it is a very intimidating weapon when *pointed at your head ... isn't it?!
I know it probably wasn't fun *walking back to wherever you'd come from with that brown sludge in your *pants. I'm sure it was even worse walking bare-footed since I made you *leave your shoes, cell phone, and wallet with me. [That prevented you from *calling or running to your buddies to come help mug us *again].
After I called your mother or *"Momma" as you had her listed in your cell, I explained the entire episode *of what you'd done Then I went and filled up my gas tank as well as those *of four other people in the gas station, -- on your credit card. The guy *with the big motor home took 153 gallons and was extremely *grateful!
I gave your shoes to a homeless *guy outside Vinnie Van Go Go's, along with all the cash in your wallet. *[That made his day!]
I then threw your wallet into the *big pink "pimp mobile" that was parked at the curb .... after I broke the *windshield and side window and keyed the entire driver's side of the *car.
Later, I called a bunch of phone *sex numbers from your cell phone. Ma Bell just now shut down the line, *although I only used the phone for a little over a day now, so what 's *going on with that? Earlier, I managed to get in two threatening phone *calls to the DA's office and one to the FBI, while mentioning President *Obama as my possible target.
The FBI guy seemed really intense *and we had a nice long chat (I guess while he traced your number *etc.).
;In a way, perhaps I should *apologize for not killing you ... but I feel this type of retribution is a *far more appropriate punishment for your threatened crime. I wish you well *as you try to sort through some of these rather immediate pressing issues, *and can only hope that you have the opportunity to reflect upon, and *perhaps reconsider, the career path you've chosen to pursue in life.. *Remember, next time you might not be so lucky. Have a good *day!
Thoughtfully yours, Semper *Fi,
Alex
