So Fun...Not!

It was such a nice sabbath after all the rain, fresh clean air & slightly cooler! Four baby blessings two of which were twin girls, who truly have been a miracle! So when we open the garage & I get out of the car, I witness a snake devouring a lizard, only the back half of the lizard is showing at this point. Lee scares the snake, the lizard gets away, but the snake hisses & attacks the flimsy foam tube Lee uses as his weapon! Anyway it takes off, okay, it was only a baby snake, but we did find out it was a rattle snake (not big enough for the rattle yet)! All these years, living in Arizona, I have never had a snake at my house! Now I am totally paranoid around here! They just recently cleared a bit of vegetation near the neighborhood, I guess that's why we got our visitor. Why it didn't go south in the desert instead of north into the neighborhood is any body's guess, but I wish it had not picked my house! I'll probably never go totally asleep again!
