Day 43 - Copperhead!!!

I learned to rock climb when I was in college.  Matt learned to rock climb before I met him.  I remember it was one of the things I was attracted to on his eharmony profile.  :)

He took me rock climbing in MD one glorious spring day a few years ago.  He set up a top rope tied to a tree and a rock and we each climbed up twice then packed up to go.  While Matt was carefully packing the ropes, I walked to the end of the rock.  When I looked to my right at the rock next to the one we were standing on, I saw this. 

EGAD!!!!

I quickly ran back to Matt screaming 'snake! SNAKE! COPPERHEAD!!!!!' while jumping around with my hands above my head.  Then I said 'go take it's picture!'

So, again, I can't claim ownership of this picture - Matt took it.

I'm just glad this HUGE copperhead was on the NEXT rock and not on ours. 

*shudder*

  1. Without a doubt, I can picture (as if I had been there), you running to Matt with your hands flailing about your head, screaming. It makes me terrified for you. And then it makes me giggle.
