They're Here, Not Just on a Plane!

It’s been a while since I could get Papa to write some things for me. He and Mama have been a little under the weather as they say. Things have been occasionally exciting though.

A couple of weeks ago Papa and I were outside, you know, so I could do my business, when we heard Mama scream at the top of her lungs. We ran back to the house and found her curled up in her chair with her knees up to her chest and her feet off the floor.

When she could finally speak, she cried, “Snake! Snake!”

Papa looked around and found this cute little red, black, and yellow snake about 10” long curled up near the door. He got a glass and tried to catch it but it kept stretching and getting out. He finally got it safely outside and let it go. Papa says snakes are our friends.

Later he figured out that Mama had gotten some plants from a nursery in Georgia and the snake came along for the ride. It was a corn snake which can actually climb things so putting him in a glass was a real trial. Hopefully he will make it through the Baltimore winter and I’ll see him again next year. That would be good for a little barking. LOL.

Later,

Woodie
