Re: [RC] [RC] [RC] moving to CA from NY - Lucy Chaplin Trumbull

I should probably have inserted a disclaimer into my
comment below, along the lines of "All CA residents
please now jump in with your tale of your horse being
bitten by a rattlesnake..."

In the general scheme of things there are worse things
that can happen. I mean, you could be swimming your
horse in a river and have it bitten by a 2m bull shark,
f'instance... or swallowed whole by an anaconda...
Probably not in CA, though.

As Barbara said, the risk is probably worth the reward.

Me:
rattlesnakes: the worst luck is to have your horse bitten by one. I've only heard first hand of this happening to one person, and she's in TX.

mb:
I have had three horses bitten.  Two last year and one a few years ago.  It is not the worst thing that can happen depending where they are bitten.  My nosy parkers were bitten on the nose.  Oh yeah, I live in Silicon Valley--San Jose central California.....mb
