Not Again!!

A snake crawled onto our porch again! I heard something knocking on the aluminum siding, so I just thought the cats found another lizard. I went out to save the lizard only to find out that it was a snake! It was easy to grab Simba and toss him back in the house, but Juliet was right by the snake, and because I was scared, I wasn't as thrilled about grabbing her, but I did. Then I got the camera to take a picture and put my game face on. I got a little closer to the snake to get more pictures. You can see how close the snake is to the porch door, so I had to sneak by it to prop open the door. Our shovel was on the porch, probably from the last snake, so I used it to toss the snake outside. I tried to whack it with the shovel, but I don't think I hit it. It was kind of hard to see because our grass needs mowed. It sort of sounds like it crawled into the drain pipe from the gutter, but I certainly wasn't getting down to look in!

Enjoy the pictures. Hopefully this snake won't make its way inside!
