coral snake

got up a couple of days ago to learn that a coral snake had been found inside the house. patricio had found it in the middle of the night on his way to the bathroom and cut it's head off. i am so-o thankful i didn't find it. my biggest fear is spiders but that does not mean that i am not afraid of snakes. dany was kind enough to explain the blood stain on the floor and show me the remains. it was about 1 1-2 feet, about as big around as a finger but as dany explained very dangerous.

there is a hole in the floor to drain the water out of the bathroom when the roof leaks - it has since been stuffed with a mat.

you might say this is the home of the brave - you have to be to come here. but since we aren't we have to trust in God to protect us and keep us safe. He has done that numerous times so don't worry.
