Hmmm.....haven't checked this since yesterday.....there's no tellin' what's hidin' up there.......even mom checks this. Ya remember the snake incident a couple of years ago? That snake was first spotted by mom right here. She likes to go to this lil' path to look at her fish....that one mornin', she turned her head an' was eyeball to eye ball w/that big snake.... (She still swears she could feel her hair turnin' white)...after a collected gasp of surprise from both parties...he went one way an' she went the other in the matter of a split second. She yelled for me an' pointed..of course I didn't see anythin'. She went back an' looked to make sure it was gone. I followed it's retreat route to under the neighbor's fence where it had escaped. He tried to infiltrate our yard a couple more times that week, scarin' the begeebees outa mom each time. Lexie even tried to get him...but like always, mom's interference led to his escape..again. (There was somethin' about it slitherin' & wriggilin' all over Lexie's head while she was tryin' to dispatch it that mom couldn't take..but that's a whole 'nother story). I finally had to take care of the situation myself...since then we haven't had another one in our yard. But I always do a security check just to give mom peace of mind. She seems to appreciate it. I only hope that the cost of that hair dye she's savin' goes to my treat fund.
