Snakes in the Rain, Egads! Opening Act.

The three videos are the Beginning, Middle and End of the story. We're getting a wee bit of flooding here, which causes animals, like SNAKES to flee to higher ground. Well, we're definitely on higher ground, uphill at least a mile from the flood. I guess this big guy was gonna make to the top of Mt. Ararat come.....well....come hell or high water! I caught a glimpse of him slithering out from the garage into the back yard, freaked out just a little (uh huh) and put in an emergency call to our resident snake expert, my son Chris "Erwin," Snake Hunter Extraordinare. Armed with a high-tech snake catcher (a mop that lets you squeeze the ends together to wring out the sponge, sans the sponge) and a high-security snake placement system (a styrofoam cooler) he set out to capture the snake. He really wanted to take it home to live with his other pals, but it wasn't to be. This guy was very big, super aggressive and striking at Chris. Plus it was dark in the garage and hard to tell if it was venomous or not.
