  1. I was fishing a stock tank in Wichita County, down a few feet from the road on the levee-thing that impounded it. Looked down at one point and there was what I think was a copperhead, s-coiled (chill, not striking), about a foot away from me. I think I jumped about four feet vertically back up onto the road in a single bound. Snek themselves tend not to be that frightening, but with the camouflage and their mode of locomotion, they can sneak up (or you walk up) and surprise your ass in a very startling way.
  2. Finally getting back to a bit of regular riding. Nothing remarkable, no new trails. Although old familiar trails have changed a bit here and there just by lapse of time and bursts of creativity from the trail stewards. Had kind of an amusing thing happen at Katie Jackson yesterday. I ride solo most of the time and am a "trail grumbler," kind of talking to myself, the critters etc. At least when no one is watching or in hearing range. So, some stick or branch caught on my left hand/bar end, got "wound up," and then smacked me on the left thigh. Not an unusual occurrence, but for whatever reason, this stick was strong and it really smacked the hell out of my leg. Really hurt. Like seriously among the most painful things that's happened to me on the bike, including breaking a collarbone and mallet-fracturing a finger. I guess a big part of it was the surprise at a routine-seeming face/body slapper really squaring up and teeing off on me. I yelled, loudly, "FUCK, that hurt." And then had a giggling fit while inspecting my leg. Left a nice whelp and a knot.
  3. I have heard nothing good about them.
  4. Kavan pretty much dealing. Maybe a few innings rest perked her up. If there is a tomorrow, hope she keeps it up.
  5. Dangerously close to a dinger, but gunned by Stewie.
  6. Kinda got that feeling doesn't it?
  7. Yesterday was aberrational with Stewie kicking it around at short, but we really don't look like the better team in any phase of the game.
  8. Arguably his entire tenure.
