Neat story Ken.
When I was a kid, we had these all over: Blue Racer, they get big, and they do bite! Plus they are fast!
The general consensus, while in grade school, if you ticked one off, was to run like hell in a zig-zag fashion. Therefore the snake, while pursuing you would roll over, either on a zig or zag, and had to right them self, thus improving your chances of a clean getaway. Third and fourth grade were a lot of fun.
When my Mom and Dad built their new house about 11 years ago, they had a problem with these snakes. They were just everywhere. Not that they are poisonous, but they were true pests. And they do have a mean streak.
After two years of dealing with them, they hired someone to take care of it.
Todd will have nightmares for sure!
