The Serpents' Congress

Entering the Badlands Number of times lost so far = 4. Number of lifers for Dom = about 25 Number of beers consumed = 24 Number of hotties seen in the USA= 4 An afternoon of burrowing owls and sharp-tailed grouse, and a fine evening on a hilltop at the Sage Creek campground enjoying a backcountry ale with my finest friend. In the morning, we ventured down roads seldom traveled (and for good reason) It was in the grasses that we discovered these two bullsnakes fully intertwined. They didn’t tolerate us pervertedly watching them for long, however, and quickly retreated down different holes before I could grab one.
Trouser snake.
As you can tell by now, the level of rage has increased drastically!
