rainy snakes

It really has been raining and storming lots here. Luckily we only had to get in the shelter once so far this tornado season. I took this photo right after a huge storm. So I get it that storms drive in bugs and such in the house looking for shelter, but I almost had a heart attack when I opened my downstairs closet door and found THIS Luckily the nice guard at our community came to my rescue and the snake is no more!
