and HISSsss......... a rattle snake appeared under the blanket SAM JUMPED BACK almost 4 FEET and was corned to the back wall. The snake was starting to corner him to the wall when he saw the attic exit 6 feet away at about forty five degree angle to his left from him. Seeing the rattler was gaining better positoin by the second he needed to act fast. He made a dash for the exit, as the snake went for a strike to the ankle it missed. He was only two feet away from the exit. He turned his head to the snake as he saw it recoil back for another strike just as he jumped down to the second floor of his house. He ran to his parents, but when they went up to check the snake was gone, and his parents never belived him when he said what happened
