    … and rattlesnakes! I'm sure many of you are old enough to remember that the reservoir used to be called Rattlesnake. I don't know for a fact why the name was changed, but I imagine it was off-putting to the tourist trade. My family owned 1280 acres of land just past Rattlesnake starting back in the late 60's, early 70's. We've still got 80 acres and have seen all kinds of wildlife on the property.
    No longer accepting new Trust clients. Pretty much out of the law business completely.
