So glad everything turned out okay and you got yourself and your baby away from the snake! Hubby went up to our deer camp yesterday afternoon to do a few things and while driving into the camp, he saw a timber rattlesnake crossing the road so he shot it - took 2 shots to kill it! It measured 60 inches long, had 13 rattles and a button, and was HUGE - biggest rattlesnake I've ever seen (he brought it home to show the boys). This is the 2nd big rattlesnake killed near the camp in the past 3 weeks. It scares me because Gabby and Gage go to the camp with us. I never let them out by themselves because of racoons, bobcats, and various other "critters" up there but....it still scares me - I will be even more on the look-out now!!
