So, I'm coming around a tree laden corner of the jogging path and...um, there's a snake just lying on the path, sunning itself.

Yeah, you just run around them...

I hope it was a nice WIDE jogging path...

It was actually one of the smaller snakes I've seen there, only took up about half the road, maybe 3 feet? 2.5 feet?

Nice snakey.....

I'm allowed to do that... we had a nest in the front yard. ;)

Yup. I can't even begin to describe what it was like to "dispose" of it, either...

EEEEEEK. *more running*

Aw - poor snakey! Poor you too!

My cat brings me snakies to rescue. It makes her happy when I save them from her. :)

Yeah, happy....

I guess once you admire her prowess, she's basically done with them, but I bet she'd really like to see you eat one.

Could be!

What sort of snake was it that you encountered?

I chased a cobra into a gutter once.

I miss those days...

Cobra! EEP!

We have little non-poisonous things here (for the most part)

I've only ever seen one snake, here in the wilds of suburban Philadelphia, and it was cool as hell. Not as cool as a cobra, though.

We see plenty of snakes in Oklahoma, I even have had a couple of garters around the house. (On living in the front flower bed, on one the side. They're harmless, but they certainly scare the bejeezus out of you when they suddenly move)

I have a record of seeing 3 snakes at the park in one day....but two of those were 7 footers, at least. Went home that day very creeped out!
