The "milking" of the snakes

Me outside of the milking pen....I had a "hesitant" laugh going on

Inside the milking pit with GetRDoneStangs....my "smile" has miraculously disappeared (I look like I am in shock)!!

Those pictures of me are TERRIBLE....and before anyone comments, I already know I was wearing Snyder colors, it wasn't intentional....heck, I even have a Paw Print stamp on my hand to get into the Tiger Pen!!

Ya know RM, besides the ugly snakes, I always thought the smell was bad in there as well.

So, did you learn anything about snakes today?

Hope you enjoyed your day in our fair city, Mom!!!

I got to watch a "mating" dance, that was kinda interesting....watching the skinning kind of grossed me out though!

I had a blast! I was gonna go the track meet, in fact, I circled the track twice trying to find a fairly close place to park. On the second time around Baby CHS_CG had crashed out and she was so good the entire time at the roundup, so I decided to let her sleep and just headed home.

One question though....are they EVER gonna finish up with that road construction? I'm sure lots has been done since the I was there in September, but it sure didn't seem like it!!

[Eagle6Man]

I read in the on-line paper that the material they had laid down for pavement wasn't any good and they are gonna have to drag that up and lay new sealent down! All that time for construction down the tubes. Not sure of the timetable, but assume they are starting completey over.

Glad y'all had a good time !:clap: We have had a ton of snakes so far this year {actuall nearly 6 tons), made for lots of work for the weigh in guys.

Thanks for coming to the Roundup and hope to catch you at a track of football field later..:cool:

I was just wondering.....:thinking: :thinking: :thinking:

Do you think that may have been the first meet and greet at a Rattlesnake Roundup????:thinking: :thinking: :thinking:

[CHS_CG]

I had a great time.. it was sure creepy to see all them snakes together...

I got Taylor drawn as a cartoon baby on a rockin horse, and a shirt and onesie..

I wanted to meet Stang Red and some of you other folks that were there but we never ran into each other.

It was a blast though!

[GreenMonster]

I must say that I am so proud to see RM actually gettin' in there and gettin' her hands "dirty" so to speak. Way to go RM! That there folks is how West Texas women roll, tougher'n nails and scared of nothin'!

I was okay when I got in there, but there was this darn snake to the right of me when I stepped in there. He/She was just laying there minding it's business, but when it saw me, it started rattling it's tail and it's tongue was darting in and out.

I had to turn my back on it to get the picture, which wouldn't have been quite so creepy has I put on the boots and chaps they offered....but I didn't. I was just wearing my jeans and tennis shoes! I couldn't concentrate on the snake I was holding because I was too worried about the snake on the floor behind me!!:eek:

Sorry Stang.. I dont have your phone number lol.. we woulda stopped at the track meet but like RM said.. taytor tot passed out almost right after we got in the truck.. so we went to sonic.. got drinks and headed back to Greenwood..

Then RM fails to look at the gas tank about 15 miles from Stanton.. she was like.. "oh the fuel light is on.. and I dont know how long its been on".. good thing we made it ok lol.

[oh well]

I must say you did have the right colors on RM
