    That's a decent sized timber rattler for being so far up north. You have far more patience with them than I do. That's what I keep the first two cylinders loaded with snake shot for.

    I'm kind of surprised nobody mentioned the obvious answer. If I lived only 1/2 mile from where I work, I would walk to work. Half a mile is only a ten minute walk (at most).
