Snakes

I love animals but am also cautiously respectful because lets face it, they can be downright scary at times and cause all kinds of trouble for humans. Then there are the other times when humans do radical things to animals, like sending them out of planes with parachutes.

If you spend time outdoors in Idaho, you should know what snakes you really should be scared of and which ones are harmless.

With the Greenbelt under water, I'm finding myself turning to the trails in the Military Reserve and Harrison Hollow as the areas to train in for my fifth marathon.  The trails provide beautiful views of the city...but there's a few things up there I'm terrified of!
