While I understand that snakes are a garden’s good friends, it’s still a little disconcerting to encounter one sunning itself among your baby spinach plants when you aren’t expecting visitors.

Yikes!
I’m hoping that this isn’t the same snake that decided to come be my new roommate last fall because he is CERTAINLY not welcome back in the house. I still get the heebee-jeebies when I think about it.
All of that said, this article will explain just why on earth my mother says I should be happy to have a snake in my garden.
PS – the Swiss Chard is up!

I forgot to tell you-I am glad that you said heebee jeebies instead of the willies. I hate to have my name implicated in any sort of fright.
