Storm Shelters and Life in the Country

Fun joys of living in the country..... Our closest neighbor/friend has told us we must be getting a quick "break" into living in the country. The first day we were out there there was a scorpion in our bathroom. Since then we have had two tarantulas, and to top it all off, yesterday we had a rattle snake. (Spider and Snake were outside) Roger was taking something outside, and the rattler was sitting part on the step and part off. Needless to say, the gun came out and it was taken care of. :-) This is a picture of the snake. Zack was pretty excited about seeing it, and getting to keep the rattle.

We have been helping our friends dig a storm shelter, but of course it had to be turned into fun. Beau (Friends son) was pretending like it was a grave.

Then they took a brake to ride bikes down the hill. Rainey (Beau's sister) wanted a try, so Berne (her Dad) Helped to make sure she did not fall.

Here are Berne and Roger standing in the Shelter. Working on making sure the walls are straight. Lots of work, and lots of sore backs. thank goodness for a wonderful Chiropractor........
