You are right. I have no fear of snakes. I have a generous respect for them. I have always found them at my feet when I wasn't looking for them though. While hunting them I could never seem to find them. You are right again-I guess it is really not a strong argument to carry a weapon though.
There are so many around here that If I killed one, I would plan on eating it and making things from it's skin. I don't believe in sport killing, unless its bowshooting carp.
Destrier-that is a fast pace, and sometimes I go that pace, but I normally don't jog that fast on hills; usually around 6:10-20. I used to be slower until I discovered POSE running.
Brainstorm- Looks good. I will have to try that. There is a 10mile loop around my city and the Columbia River and people are always on that. It can get sketchy at night.
