I took 30 days leave from the navy in 2009 and spent 3 days camping out at lake Sonoma with some friends. We where packing up the morning of the last day and a western diamondback rattlesnake crossed the road into our camp site :/ anyone who has been to lake Sonoma knows that they kill a lot of the rattlers since the campsites are so close together and the park stays so busy. I relocated this little guy in hopes that some campers or children wouldn't beat him with stones and rocks. :/ depressing it has to be that way. I have some photos of the snake and i thought you all might enjoy them.







And mission success.
