Yeah well, Tennessee.....

GREENBRIER, Tenn. (WZTV) — A Middle Tennessee couple is rattled after finding a venomous snake inside their infant's wagon last week. 

Autumn and Tyler Maidlow live in Greenbrier. Autumn says they store their child's wagon inside the garage.

I say yeah well Tennessee, but I've been here for over 7 years and have seen exactly one venomous snake, a copperhead about 3 feet long laying underneath a tree next to the house waiting for a fledgling to fall out of its nest.
On the other hand, when I was living in California and prowling around the brush in the Mother Lode, I either saw or heard more rattlesnakes than I can even begin to count.
