[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1339097, member: 30902"] On the list of ******* things I've gotten myself into it's pretty high. The accident wasn't near as bad as having to pull it out myself and then drive myself to the ER. The surgery seems to have gone well and at least partial hearing is returning as all the swelling goes down and that's a blessing for sure. My right ear has been shot for thirty years and the idea of walking around here with all the rattlesnakes and not being able to hear them was making me reconsider my future outdoor utility. You really need at least decent hearing and both ears working to some degree or even though you can hear them it's really hard to figure out where they are if you can't see them. Last year the wife and I were out looking over our new property walking through tall grass on a hot day when I realized I'd just stepped over about a five footer. I stopped her and froze mid stride long enough for him to slither off from between my feet. Had I not heard the little tick of a rattle as he woke up that could have ended badly. Still amazes me as many hogs as we have on that place that there's even one snake left of any kind but man, it's thick with them. In four years we've killed over a hundred and fifty on it. [/QUOTE]
