Remember my run in with the snake yesterday...well the story gets better.
Seems Ms. Snake decided to pay the neighbors a visit about an hour after my run it with him/her.
Mom and Dad Neighbor were out running errands and oldest Daughter Neighbor was home alone. Oldest Daughter Neighbor graduated high school last year and was visiting. She was home and since the weather has been somewhat pleasant she had the front wooden door open (glass/screen door still closed). While watching TV..she notices something swinging at the top of the doorway. Walks over to investigate and what is staring at her through the glass...YES...Ms. SNAKE! Seems that Ms. Snake slithered up a piece of lattice that is next to the front door and was just hanging out..literally.
Well she screams and calls Mom and Dad to inform them. Mom says make sure the glass door is pulled tight and close the wooden door. She does this.
Mom and Dad come home and Mom is walking carefully onto the porch looking for snake near door...asks Dad where it is and he points mere inches from her on the glider. She jumps, screams and goes towards other neighbor house. LOL.
Hero Neighbor Dad gets something and pushes Ms. Snake all the way across the street to the woods. We are sure that Ms. Snake might have road rash from being pushed across the street but sorry about her luck.
The most frightening part of this whole story...seems that Youngest Daughter Neighbor was cutting the grass yesterday and ran over a smaller snake...so it might be that we have a "nest" of them and Ms. Snake was really "Momma Snake".
Can you say.....thinking of "House for Sale". LOL.....

Ew.. cringing for you. We live near water and occasionally get little water snakes in our yard. Awful little things, but they mostly try to stay away from people.
