NW Iowa. / SW Arizona | Went riding up North between Yuma and Lake Martinez today and came upon the first rattle snake we’ve encountered down here this winter. It’s not a good picture of it as it was dark deep in the hole but you can see it if you look hard enough. I was surprised we saw one as it was only about 65 degrees out when we saw it.
We were riding along some bluffs when Karen said to stop and back up there was a snake in a crevice in the wall. Sure enough there was one there soaking up some sun rays. In the RZR picture the crevice was along the right side of it. I got out to take a closer picture but Karen wouldn’t get out. We could hear it rattle it’s tail then it disappeared deeper into the crevice which was probably a good thing :-).
Other shots are where we sat to eat our noon meal over looking the Colorado river. California is accross the river, was a beautiful place to eat.
Other shots are of some dead trees that had some character to them. Karen wanted to bring them both home, sure glad that’s not possible.
