We just killed a copperhead snake
Sep. 19th, 2009 07:54 pm*bleh*
Coming in from dinner I was just about to open the front screen when I noticed a small snake sitting about 2 feet from me. I said "B look .. it's a garden snake" ... he took a look at it and then told me "Babe, you need to back up right now ...that's *not* a garden snake ... that's a Copperhead" Ummm ... fuck.
So, after not taking my eyes off it, and backing up and getting Q to open the garage, B killed it with a shovel, with Q holding a spiked rake to it as a back up. *bleh*bleh*bleh* It was slightly longer than a foot. Thanks you![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
belthazar_b for recognizing what it was and killing it!
Five minutes earlier my kids had all been playing in the yard and possibly walked right over it. ~shudders~ That thought alone almost caused me to lose my dinner. But they're safe, we're safe and now it's gone.
Got the serious willies now.
