Sorry to hear that.
For some reason I was thinking you were out of Wichita (donno why, should know better), I can see why you came from AR now! Opps.
Yeah, lots of snakes! Although the back woods rednecks are just as bad. Some of those well sites (south of there especially) when going to them in the middle of the night alone (which we are mostly) deep into the woods/hills, they suggest to carry a loaded gun on ya at all times and keep your eyes open while working. I can tell ya some horror storys of guys spending the night out on those locations in there trucks, alone. Theres some ****ed up people in this world let me tell ya...
