Today was another beautiful day and we thought we would take the opportunity to mow the lawn and do some garden work. All the wet weather and the holiday season have lead to an overgrown house. Now as the boys get older we have tried to have one of us mow the lawn and the other do the edges at the same time to speed up the whole process. As we do this the boys play inside as they don’t like the noise outside. As we were outside Ethan decided he would dress up and he’s ready to help. Almost got all the snaps right. At least the noise won’t hear the lawn mower.
While we were on a role we decided to do some long overdue weeding in our back yard. This seems to be a never ending battle with the weeds. Sal decided to get up on the roof and pull some weed from the tree in the neighbours yard that hangs into our place. As she pulled down the weed down came something unexpected.
A snake skin. Not the first we have found. We have also found one in our yard in the past. The only snake we have seen so far though is the one that occasionally sun bakes on our fence. I managed to fool myself into thinking that the back yard is safe. Not necessarily true better keep an eye out.
Pretty big thing isn’t it. Ben was happy to show off the size of the skin that the snake no longer needs.
