I really did a stupid thing today
« on: January 15, 2012, 06:09:00 PM »
Been finishing up skinning and fleshing a bunch of snake skins over the last week for bow limbs. Did the last several today.
Wife took the kids to ski school, so nobody home!
 The bathtub is much easier than several 5 gallon buckets in the freezing garage for rinsing the copperheads, thats for sure. But bring raw snakes into the home is a no no at my house. Tough enough to get the okay in the garage.

Ski school cancelled due to super cold.  Guess who gets caught with a tub full of copperheads?

That the way it always happens,Murphys law. You better be bleaching the tub as she goes shopping.

The way my wife feels about snakes.....I'd be in DEEP having them in the garage!

If they were in the bathtub.....I'd be sleeping in the garage....with the snakes!!

Now you'll have all the time you want to do them in the Garage, since that is probably your new address.   :knothead:    :laughing: . You'll really be looking forward to this spring!

Nice! It will keep your wife wondering what you do when she is gone.  It's good for them to wonder at times.

Brings back some fond memories....... once got caught skinning and processing a 5' long Gator tail on the kitchen counter.
Wife never even came in the house, opened the door, smelled it, saw the muscles contract, got back in the car and left.
Didn't speak to me for over a week.
 
Thanks for the memory..... that was a peaceful week!
