He would at that. Maybe he could be a famous snake wrangler downunder. Yeah, that’s the ticket.🙂

So THAT explains the happy little vibe I was getting! Well, maybe it was an “ohmygawd SNAKES” vibe. I’m kind of clairvoyance-dyslexic

I’m right down the road from Ruston so will wave there, too. _Waving_ Hi, Li’l Wrekker! Will do on the peaches. I’ve heard those hurricanes are lethal, though. Speaking of which, that was some gully-washer Monday night. I’m wondering if it had anything to do with all those snakes showing up at Chez de Wrek.

I live in a strange area (Arkansas is really all weird) .  
Big Lake one one side of the county. Major river system on the other. And the bayou is spread out through out the county. We’ve had a very wet spring and summer. That is my uneducated guess as to why snakes are swarming. So far today, no snakes. The big ol’ Snake wrangler is poking around as we speak.

Early Wednesday evening Mr.Wrekker announced the crisis is over. I asked him over dinner did he kill any snakes today, he shook his head, no. I asked 5 questions in quick succession. He never quit eating.  
He got up and put his plate in the sink. He started out thru the garage. I asked him, where he was going. He answered, one word: “Lake”,  
I muttered one word under my breath…  
It wasn’t: ‘Snakes!’  
🙂
