Nielson Ranch

We spent part of the week at the Nielson's Ranch in Bluewater New Mexico. Lot's of fun & visiting. Yes, that is a rattle snake that Dad is holding!!! We were out riding the quads & stopped to look for Indian ruins. Dad got off, we heard the rattle. The grass was so tall it took a second to spot the snake. It was about 20 ft. from Dad. Russell came to the rescue - you know Dad can't kill anything! The snake put up a good fight but Russ won out in the end!!!!!

It was beautiful, fun & the weather was perfect! Thanks Russ & Mary!
