Moods....

A passerby took this photo at a rest stop near the 3 mile mark at Crabtree.

That snake, which Nelson guessed at about 3 feet long plopped on the ground right smack in front of my feet. It had apparently slithered down the hill to our right and then dropped onto the trail. Fellow hikers guessed it to be a black snake, which are "harmless as long as you don't get in their way." And, yes, I did scream!
