I'm posting this on behalf of my wife, on a friend's computer. Recently my family relocated to land that we own -- upon which we are in the process of bulding a new house.

This was not an ordinary walk, because we live right at the edge of a forest/woods that surrounds a lake. We are located NW of Paris, Texas, in Lamar County. Anyways, she went for this walk in the woods because it was her first walk of the season. We are affraid to go down into the woods during the summer, as it is snake infested. So we usually wait until it freezes before we venture... It was down around 30 to 40 degrees that day. Our land is a pretty chunk of property. It backs up within 1/2 mile of the lake. We are the last owners on our road. Uncle Sam is our neighbor. I believe the land is part of the State of Texas' Wildlife Manage...
