Snakes are one reason I don’t mind the not so stray cats that show up. Since they been hanging around I haven’t seen a single snake anywhere in or around my yard.

I am not even a fan of big worms. We do not see snakes around here and I am more than fine with that.

The old saying “Truth is stranger than fiction”… It’s springtime here and we are experiencing happy birds, beautiful blossom, and the occasional python sliding across our back garden. Wishing you a colourful autumn š

I did see the story on the man in a search party who found out he was looking for himself. Wish I could think up something fictional that was as crazy as that. What a great Blog post it would make!
