Watch Your Step!

Leaving the vineyard yesterday for lunch, our oldest daughter almost stepped on the snake in the picture! Thankfully, he (or she - I didn't ask which) was not poisonous. But, I must admit, in my opinion, the only good snake is a dead one! We did not kill him because as some family members pointed out, they do have a purpose - they eat rodents like mice and rats - I would rather use a mouse trap!    🙂

    Amen my friend! The only good snake is a dead one. I'd buy mouse traps any day! Have a great weekend.

    Whoa! You actually have those critters on your property? My wife told me about it, so I had to come see for myself. DANG!

    Ew! I agree with you, even though I hear all the time of the snakes' usefulness... we get various types in our back yard...um...who wants to get close enough to see if they are poisonous or not? haha

    Blessings & Aloha!

    When I was a kid, my little sister stepped on a snake and it bit her. It was a bit bigger than the snake on the picture , but thank God it is not poisonous. We could never find where the snake came, but since then we never let my little sister playing alone in our yard.
