Arizona - Snakes, Scorpions and Spiders

 They are waking up and are on the move and this city girl transplant is no fan of any of them. Well with the exemptions of Tarantulas as I do like them quite a bit. Living in Colorado we did have snakes even thought I never seen one on our mountain. 

Life in the desert is such a great experience, during the winter it is very quiet except some Grasshoppers, stick bugs and the occasional howl from coyotes. We watched a woodpecker family raise their little birds in a nest made in a cactus. But now that it is warming up, the snakes and scorpions are however popping up and they do keep me on my toes. So wearing solid shoes matters!!!

We found a Scorpion in our fireplace, we seen snakes, real and fake ones, and we turned it into a game as in us hiding them with each other.

Today when we left Quartzsite I let my guard down only to be shocked to find a snake at our new campground for the night, hidden in my camping chair. Thanks Sue and Jeff 😂😂😂
