Description

I just missed getting a lightning strike in this cloud bank.this was only a small part of a huge thunder head my son yesterday was bitten by a Copperhead snake he is in the hospital in another city being given anti-venom treatment.he was bitten on his pinky finger and he might lose the finger because of the effect of the venom causing flesh to rot and his blood pressure was going up and down, mostly down last night. he works for a small town city's government and liable to be doing anything from heavy equipment operator to reading water meters.he got bit when he tried to clear the glass cover of a water meter .I may go over there today if he is not released from the hospital this morning. thanks for viewing and any comments
