Unwanted Visitors

Due to the change in plans, we spent today cleaning up after the tornado. B and I were at the house moving branches and such. B was on the roof. I came outside to tell him something and as I walked around the corner of the house I see something move and notice a GIANT SNAKE. I screamed 'POOOOOOOOOOOOP' only maybe not that nice of a word. I don't normally scream such things out but I was lacking any self control at the time.

B came over on that side of the roof and I said 'Snake, snake, snake, big, there, snake.' He saw it slither off into our stack of wood. Then he tells me to come around and see if I can find it. WHAT? Are you crazy? But, I did it. I would stop about every two minutes and just shiver and say 'Blah, ewww, ahhh'. This caused our neighbor to come over and ask what is happening. There were a roofing companies walking around the neighborhood offering to check out your roof and he was walking around his house with them. I told him about the snake. He said he did not like snakes. Bryan came down and, along with our neighbor, started poking around in the stack of wood. There was talk of sticking their hand in and grabbing it. Other men came around. It was a sight to see.

After all the comotion we had not one but two snakes. The best part was that they got the small one first. B and I had seen the large one. We did not know about the small one. So while they were looking... all the other guys were seeing the small one and thinking we were exaggerating the size of the snake. Then big mama came out and we were redeemed. B is very proud of his snake kills.
