Christina and I were at Target this morning for some pillows for her new renter and I saw this sweet little thing in the parking lot.  She didn’t seem to appreciate it as much as I did but I guess that is understandable.

OK it probably wasn’t deadly but we saw this on our walk tonight and luckily Christina had her iPhone on her. I’m not a huge snake fan, AKA, yeah I’m scared of them so I got as close as I felt comfortable…AKA…I got close enough that if it charged me I could run like crazy away from it safely. Risking my life for your blogging enjoyment people, that’s what I’m here for.
