An Unexpected Visitor

Not too long ago, I was in my my office writing when my husband, Shawn, called me into the kitchen. He pointed to the sliding door in my office and managed to ask if that was outside or inside.

Somewhat horrified, I looked at the snake slithering up the post. Since Shawn does not walk well, I went to investigate and with a sigh of relief was able to report that it was outside.

Relieved we decided to see what type of snake it was, so we got out the iPads and looked it up. I wanted to go outside to get a better look, but Shawn was opposed to the idea, so we’re stuck looking through the glass. In the end it was only a garden snake, but it was a huge distraction as it hung around for several hours.
