uuuuhhhggg!

I nearly had a heart attack today when I was putting my hand in this bag and something big moved! I don't get crazy when it comes to snakes but I really don't like touching them, especially when I don't expect them! I screamed and the poor guy looked more afraid than I did! I posted this photo on my Florida thread and my dear gardening friends identified him as a corn snake...very beneficial snake for rodents etc.. Whew! Very pretty snake and I just tipped the bag and gave him a few minutes to regain his composure (hehe) and he slithered off.

Lesson today: Always check your potting soil! LOL!
