Snakes are not just a Southern thing... The dogs and I have encountered rattle snakes in my back yard in North Carolina and also while hiking in New York just above Woodstock in the Hudson Valley...
My most interesting encounter wasn't quite a snake... While leading a diving group in Mexico:
See that thing in the reef, with the big shiny teeth?
That's a Moray...
(Eel, that is...)
