Beware of Snakes

This from one of your neighbors down on Lakeshore:

Ken,

Thought I would give everyone in Country Place a helpful reminder to be careful where you step and put your hands.  Lamar and I walked back to the lake behind our house several Fridays ago and on returning to our yard Lamar was bitten by a copperhead.  After half a night in the ER all is well now.  We have had 3 additional copperhead bites brought into our ER this month as well, and this shows me there is some aggressive snakes right now.

Thanks,

Kratos and I have seen several dead copperheads on Country Place roads over the years, particularly down on Lakeshore after the Mohn’s cleared. Just be aware that they’re around and watch your step!
