Last year I only had one pepper plant and it was a failure. But my family is on a stir fry kick and so I have 8 plants this year.<br /><br />Everyone, I wasn't brave. I was scared but tried to be calm and smart around this guy!! So far... no signs of him again!! With the rain we received today I hope he goes back to the woods and away from my yard!!Debbie in MShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05297581188154833080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3655388205078421113.post-84909424467912736242010-06-29T22:50:16.005-05:002010-06-29T22:50:16.005-05:00Luckily, we don't have copperheads here.

Smart idea that you were keeping an eye on the birds today! Congrats on the peppers! It was a long time before I was able to grow any peppers, and even now I've only had a few really great pepper years. Hopefully this will be another! <br />~~LoriDirt Loverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09218959840456660541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3655388205078421113.post-50212167534903792062010-06-29T13:56:32.470-05:002010-06-29T13:56:32.470-05:00You are brave!

Rattlesnakes at least alert you to their presence and the eastern sort is endangered anyway so there aren't many around.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3655388205078421113.post-33229698056437616302010-06-29T11:17:45.504-05:002010-06-29T11:17:45.504-05:00You are BRAVE!
