A good day for "Rattlesnakes"


We spent yesterday testing the limits of our courage, visiting the excellent "VENOM" exhibit at THE NATIONAL MISSISSIPPI RIVER MUSEUM & AQUARIUM in Dubuque.
Jill, the girls, our niece Morgan and I stuck our heads in specially designed glass bubbles to get an "up close" view of rattlesnakes.
The exhibit also features scorpions, spiders, a cobra and Gila monsters, among other poisonous creatures, but the rattlesnakes kept drawing us back to their enclosure.
I decided to listen to the LLOYD COLE & THE COMMOTIONS classic album, "RATTLESNAKES," today in celebration of the slithering stars of yesterday.
It seems like a good day for "Rattlesnakes."
