Camuesa Connector And The Case Of The Curious Baby Rattler

F.B. and I decided to head over into the Santa Ynez Valley to get away from the grey and rode the Camuesa Connector Trail today.  The trail is in good shape partially due to the recent work by SBMTV and the river section is low enough to ride without stopping.  On the way back along Paradise Rd we encountered a baby rattler sunning itself on the pavement. We stopped and found this little guy to be very curious about us. He started to leave only to come back around the rear of F.B.'s bike to take a little rest. During his adventure he checked out my sunglasses then decided after about 5 mintues he had enough and dissappeared into the bushes. - D
