Another Cobra (Ian)
Today while I was walking to the Haven I met this guy named Gift (his first name). As we walked out of the front gate of Eric's house Gift pointed to a snake on the fence and yelled "cobra". He and his buddy grabbed a hand full of stones, his buddy went to one side of the fence and Gift the other. then they started throwing stones at the snake. The snake kept dodging so Gift got a stick and flipped the snake up in the air and on to the road. He held the snake on to road with the stick while his buddy stoned the cobra. Finally they killed it and threw it to the birds. It was like the one David killed last week. We didn't see the spread hood, but everyone called it a cobra.

Ok, I said no more snake encounters! Especially ones flying through the air! No climbing trees, sitting under trees, etc. Do I need to bring a snake stick with me? How about a shotgun??????
Ian, no more snakes!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can anyone guess that this is Ian's Momma?
I have been informed that the snake is a "spitting cobra". Mrs. Hamby casually mentioned that she had one in her house in February. It took me a moment to realize that she is talking about this house. I am sitting on the bed with my feet up under me. I am having a hard time adjusting to that bit of news.
I'm trying to picture you sitting on a bed, thinking there might be a snake underneath! Get a big stick, Dan.
