Snakes

I have been running about 3-4 miles and I try to go 2-3 times a week. Today I tried to go earlier in the morning because it is starting to get hot and humid here in Oklahoma. I went to the park I run in about 8:30 this morning. I almost always see some animals in the park. I've seen lots of squirrels, rabbits, field mice and occasionally deer. Today as I was running my trail, I saw some snakes. I have seen snakes before but not so many. The first one was really tiny, about 6-8 inches. The second one was bigger, about 12-15 inches and the last one was at least 2 feet. I worry sometime that if I'm not paying attention, I will step on one and get bit.

I invited Kellen to blog since he and Ashley have been running. Where are my sister? They need to post something.

  1. I saw a snake monday when I was running. It was about 2 feet long and I don't think it was of the venomous variety, but it still made me pause. Another pet peeve while running is wasps. I swear the fly straight at me when I approach.

  2. Pretty much all I see at the park I usually run is birds. There's a big pond in the middle so there are usually some ducks and Canadian geese around.
