Rest of the day


I was just heading out of the house when the neighbors dogs started going nuts. I stepped in the front yard and saw they had something cornered. I walked over to the fence and saw they had a snake pinned up against the back wall of the house. I yelled at the dogs, and they started to back off. I then watched as the 2-3 foot long snake crawled up the side of the house by gripping the ridges in the brick, heading for the windowsill. I figured it was going to lay up on it to get away from the dogs. I started to notice that the snake was not curling up or running down the sill. I jumped the fence just as I saw the tail of the snake disappear into the house through the open window that was missing the screen!

I called the neighbor who was not home and told her what had happened. She called me back later to tell me that they had found it in a bathroom and relocated it to the woods. Turned out to be nonvenomous.

Kim called me about 3 and was feeling a little better so I ran back to the house to get her, and brought her back to her moms house. I few of pictures attached: Kim and her sister, and Josh and Meagan with her cousins.
