Ed: Here I was enjoying my "catch up" time, gandering at the beautiful pics on CM and BAM what do I see? A nasty, icky, not to mention gross, snake. Ed, I was scared so badly I'm sure I will have a restless night of sleep and will probably dream of them. For us gals that can't stand those critters, please take care to put in bold red print at the top of the page "GROSS PIC OF YUCKY CRITTER TO FOLLOW." Thank you so much. LOL. Name of writer, important CM advertiser Patricia Willis, owner of the Dairy Dip, 114 Jamestown ST, Columbia, KY withheld to protect major account.
