Snake Man - Keeping Your Carport Safe


When we got back from swimming one day while in Arizona, we found a snake, about 18 inches long in the carport at Grandma Lutz's house. She was pretty convinced it was a baby rattlesnake and we were pretty sure it wasn't. There was no doubt that the markings were unlike any snake we find in Washington. Grandma Lutz did not want the snake in her carport or on her patio so Bob offered to catch it and take it across the street to a desert park.

He thought he was Steve Irwin but Heather pointed out that he took one chance too many. Enjoy the video of Bob "The Crocidile Hunter" as he attempts to catch what could be a dangerous snake.






By the way, we checked it out later and we are pretty sure it was a relatively harmless, non-venemous gopher snake. Grandma is still convinced it is a rattler.

I think that video might just be the funniest thing I've seen all day. I could pictur4e just that conversation happening before I even hit play on it.
