May 11

Carol dropped us off at Aaron's Rental in Malvern early this morning and in no time we were walking past the Acme Brick Company in Perla.

 

We stopped briefly at the Citco station and were on our way. Single file walking among the pine trees. Birds serenading us as we walk along. Suddenly, I heard John call out, "Dick, Dick". I turned around and there was John watching over a dead snake. I had walked right by it and didn't see it at all. Not being a snake person, It was very colorful, but I don't know what kind it is. Does anyone know what kind of snake this is?

 

We walked a little longer when John's brother, Don, pulled up in his pickup, parked it along the side of the road and joined us for about 4 miles. He was with us as we entered Poyen, population 272. John said that was just on weekends.

 

We walked to the other side of Poyen and Ruth was waiting to pick us up. She ever gave Don a ride back to his truck. We found .26 cents. Stay tuned ....
