After Mother and Grandmother told me I was supposed to be afraid of snakes I had a couple of encounters that scared the s----- or something out of me.
I was young and went into the Blackberry patch. I walked a little way and here comes a turtle, I think it was, racing across my foot. Wasn't slow at all. Then here comes a snake right over my foot, like it wasn't there, in hot pursuit apparently. I screamed bloody murder. Some time later I was in the back yard near the same patch. There were numerous Garter snakes hooping all over the yard. I mean there were a lot. Told Dad and he didn't believe me until a few minutes later he was looking out the kitchen window and saw them.
Seemed like every time I was in the field or woods I saw snakes so I got over them supposedly going to poison me. Not particularly fond of stepping over a Rattlesnake all coiled up though.
