Tenn River backwaters (nothing to do with Lugers at all)

George Anderson,

I know what you mean about the color variation of the timber rattler.

A lifetime ago, I was quail hunting along a creek bottom and came upon the most beautiful timber rattler, him being silver and black laced.

So I decided that I got to have some of him and reached down to quickly pick him up. My version of quick was not exactly the snake's version of quick.

He bit me.

Arm swole up some and I have never had the desire to pick up a snake since.
