I would have been just as happy not to see this very long gopher snake. It is harmless, and probably eats rodents, but I was not thrilled when slithered under the closed garage door. For all I know he is still living in the garage somewhere. I took a number of photos of the snake when Calvin said "Hey I'm better looking that that snake." So I took his picture and he is better looking.
I'm not ok with this. That snake is probably in a ski boot or car engine or sleeping bag or somewhere else it does not belong. And no snakes are harmless. That is a lie we tell children and ourselves so we sleep at night.
ReplyDeleteIt must be that time of year. A giant, many-legged bug suddenly emerged from behind some files in my office at work and climbed the wall to the ceiling over my head! He was removed.
