I must confess, the snake incident, I cried and bawled. It was scary to me. My husband left work to help, because the critter was acting like a rattle snake and those are dangerous. It turned out to be a garden snake, which are harmless, but gods, I was terrified.

It's been an adjustment, living in a semi rural setting after living in cities all my life. I was given a crash course on animals to watch out for when I moved here: deer at night when I'm driving, brown recluse spiders because their bite causes necrosis, black widows because their bite makes you very sick, tarantulas because of their painful bite, copperheads because of their venom, rattles for the same reason, feral pigs and hogs, bears, cougars and panthers, scorpions... I feel like Steve Irwin.

Oh, and wild turkeys.

Truth be told, of that list, I've only seen the scorpion, the tarantulas, the black widows, the turkeys And the deer. I've seen brown recluse nests, but never the spider.
