Just thought of something that was quite funny at the time--several years after we left western North Dakota a group of us went back to the badlands near Medora for a few days of trail riding. The one gal had never been there before and was totally unfamiliar with rattlesnakes. After a few hours of riding we stopped & got off the horses, and this gal promtly collapsed on top of a thick clump of brush & declared that she was so stiff and sore and tired she was never going to be able to get back up on that horse. My mom piped up & told her that she better hope there isn't a snake in that clump of brush...well! That gal was up off of that bush & back on top her horse faster than you could blink your eyes!
Nothing like "incentive" to forget ones aches & pains and tiredness!
