Well geeze, you are closer than the rest of us. You can drive it in a few
hours, have some interesting fun and then drive back with some interesting
things to tell. Wow, pass up the opportunity and have to wait another year?
Okay if you have better things to do, go ahead.

Today is the start of the Annual Sweetwater Rattlesnake Roundup at the Nolan
County Coliseum. It's a neat event to attend. You can watch snakes being
milked and see the hundreds or thousands of snakes in the snake pit. You
can buy snake skins for use as hat bands, belts, neck ties, etc. They will
even take you on a snake hunt and show you how it's done. They use gasoline
in a sprayer to spray into the snake dens where the snakes come slithering
out. They are then grabbed with a hook on the end of a golf stick and
placed into a gunny sack. They are then brought back to the coliseum where
they are dumped into the snake pit. Watching guys jump into the pit and
seeing snakes strike at them is quite the sight. The roundup lasts through
Sunday, so it could be a short adventure to attend.
I was there two years in a row thanks to Uncle Sam in 1967 & 1968. I was
stationed in Sweetwater as a radar operator then.
