Yikes. I joined a facebook group called "National Snakebite Support" after my first run in with a (non-venomous) snake. I've got the protocol for dealing with snake bites down, mostly in my head but also links and screenshots on my phone. What I need to do is figure out what the nearest hospital is that's got antivenom. No point in going anywhere else.

Yep, we had lots of cold rain yesterday, last night and this morning. I'm guessing that's what had him so lethargic. I'm not complaining!
