To Kill A Snake (and Entertain My Kids)

I'm going to just jump right in and tell a quick story of today--- David took the girls for a walk to give me a few moments to pick up the house. They came across our neighbor, Keith, who just got finished chopping the head off of a 4 foot long black (unknown name) snake!!!! It was still writhing and wiggling and David decided to let the girls pet the dead snake. Nice. Keith thought David was weird. So do I. But it was the highlight of their evening...
