A couple of
possibly amusing tales:
We were heading up highway 441 on our trip to the North Georgia mountains on June 6, when Marsha and I saw a black snake in the road in front of us. Now, you have to understand that Marsha
loathes snakes. I was not going to swerve for it, but it turned out that I did not need to. As we approached, that snake almost literally threw itself off the road, which of course amused Marsha and prompted her to say, “It saw this big monster coming and knew it had better get out of the way if it wanted to keep living.”
I think the Montana earned a treasured spot in her heart after that!
We also were towing the Montana through Commerce, Georgia today on our way back when I saw a red light in front of us with cars backed up. Now, I do not like this stop light as it is at the bottom of a long grade and I dislike starting from such a place. As I closed on the light, I groused about it, but it started to change. The cars there, however, were slow to react, so I groused again about them getting going. That was when John, our eight year old son, decided to voice his own opinion: “Move out of the way, big Montana coming through!”
Maybe we could get a sign printed out and see if that would work on humans AND snakes alike!
