Most of Devil's Hammock is pine flatwoods and is pretty wet this year. I think this black racer was just looking for a dry spot. Posted by Picasa

More stuff to worry about that might be hiding under the bed.

As a boy, I had a garter snake get loose in our couch...we never found it. It was a while before one of my favorite aunts would sit on that couch.

Heh, over the years we have had a number of snakes go missing in our house. Thankfully, they all managed to get outside somehow...except for one. I found it quite by accident while doing the laundry. Good thing it wiggled before I put the sweatshirt it was hiding in in the washer!

My mom tells a story about my brother's pet turtle being accidently washed in the washing machine (it was in his pocket). When she discovered it, it was alive and well, but for a while afterword it would flip over on it's back when you set it down. Apparently the spin cycle had confused it's equilibrium.
