    You need to get them turkeys to move out the way so you can target practice! Don

    Nice to see the pics!

    We have 18" of snow on the ground and far below zero every night for the next week or two. I don't think Copperheads will be out and about for a while.

    Love those copperheads, one of the most beautiful snakes in NA. Especially those Osage.

    They certainly are a beautiful snake, just wish they would stay away from my front porch.

    Put you a rear seat from a Chevy, which you sit on a lot, being mostly unemployed, and add an old washing machine. The neighbors will think you are a native, and the copperheads won't go near the place. They have more taste.😁

    There are certainly areas around here that resemble that.

    My grandparents farm was close to "Crystal Cave" now closed and for sale..........don't remember the roads around there but Walnut Grove I think was a close town.........I could Google it but...........


    my grandparents got old.......had a big farm auction..........sold it...........moved to Texas to be close to family........they are both gone now and the property has been sub-divided.....

    Crystal was/is one of the loveliest little caves in Missouri. Enough off the beaten path to ever have much traffic.

    Great pics. I gotta say, the southern part of our state is indeed beautiful. With the hills, old mountains, caves and rivers it is paradise for us outdoors types.

    This year we've probably had 1.5 inches.
