History:
"The Aztecs in search of their promised land, were told by their god Huitzilopochtli, that when they would find the eagle devouring a serperent on a nopal cactus tree, they were to settle down in that place and found Tenochtitlan. " (I am assuming the snake was a rattlesnake!)
They need to close the border before the descendants of the Aztecs consider this a sign that they need to take Silsby for their new capital city in Texas!
“This is seriously not funny and I am glad she survived!”
Of course it was not funny at the time it actually happened. I believe anyone on this site would have been scared for her and would have done their best to help the poor lady as she was being attacked.
However, in hindsight and with the re-telling of the events (tractor, snake, hawk, husband) it has all the necessary details of a Monty Python skit or a Jerry Clower** tale. I would bet the couple laughs when they tell the story.
