She tells the story often but never said how she got the little critters out!! Our neighbors thought our family strange because my mother would always make me turn my pockets inside out and pull my trousers off before I entered the house after that episode. Little did they know what event triggered that small idiosyncrasy unique to me and my mother.

It is amazing all the stupid things we did as kids and managed to survive. We lived near a man made lake & were told by the adults that there were snake pits at the bottom. The area did have water moccasins and cottonmouths....so naturally we would jump off the docks and try to land in the snake pits.
