[Magdalen] Taking care of our neighbors in the yard

[Jay Weigel]

I'm weird. I like snakes, at least the non-poisonous ones, although I may
jump and shriek a bit if startled by one. At our last stop on last
weekend's rockhounding trip, one of the guys found a baby milk snake
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milk_snake  He was taking it home to put in
his garden. It was about 6 inches long. Cute little guy.
