Not much of a hike, but I did see 4 different snake species. I started out before sunrise and didn't see anyone until the end.

Now that my snake count is burgeoning, my online dating profile has been blowing up. Unfortunately, my efforts of bringing snakes back into pop culture is a slow process and not everyone is hip on herping. Take this scenario for example:

Typical date convo:

Date: So what do you like to do?
Me: Go herping.
Date: What's that?
Me: It's when you go outside and look for snakes.
Date: That's weird.
Me: What do you like to do?
Date: Play Pokemon Go.
Me: What's that?
Date: It's when you go outside and look for computer animated creatures with your cellphone and throw imaginary balls at them.
Me: Oh, that's not weird.

Anyway, that wasn't a real conversation, but it very well could've been. So far my snake total for 2016 is 232. I have to stay local this weekend but hope to get out and explore some new area these coming weekends.
