What happened to green snakes? Haven't seen one since I was a kid.

I saw one last year that looked like it was a bit larger than the picture Brandon posted. I'm not a fan of snakes but good gosh that was a beautiful green. I saw it slither into one of my bushes and grabbed my phone to get a shot...couldn't find it again.

How close do you live to "undeveloped land?"

There are two un usable lots between my place and the next house to one side of me. Also, there is a "holler' behind my house, that separates the circle I live on and a subdivision on the other side of the holler. There is a small creek at the bottom and animals travel it. Often times, the animals will make their way up into my yard.

What about a free prize in a cereal box?

What about ADs on the box of cereal? Sea Monkey, 100 Army men and a fort, x ray glass? I bought two airplanes off the back of cereal, cut the order card off the back, and glue a dime for it for the cost. It came and it was crap, but it was my crap! :laugh:

In 10 years you won't be able to find a cereal box on the aisle that has a cartoon character on the box. See Latin America over the last decade.

There was a coyote in my back yard a few years ago. Also, I have more fire ants than I need. If you need a few ...........

Over the years, we've seen baby quail skeletons overrun with fire ants, and ants in partially hatched eggs.

Fire ants and kudzu are two good reasons - perhaps the only two - to live north of Kentucky.

I will tell you that I live in a wonderful place. Logan Martin was impounded in 1965, about the time that fire ants had made their way from Mobile to Shelby and St. Clair Counties. I'm on a peninsula that is free of fire ants. We have a trillion tiny black ants that don't sting - I'll call them piss ants - and to a large degree they stay out of the house.

Always been told that if you have piss ants you won't have fire wants because piss ants will starve them out. Not sure if it's true but I've never seen both in the same place.
