I did not see the snake but she noticed that she looked like was going to have a heart attack and her frequent companion Nancy (with Lola) teased her by asking her if she really wanted to see Debby Reynolds that badly.

The hawks sometimes will pull one of these black racers off the field if they are lucky enough to spot one out in the open and I almost stepped on one of these six foot black racers when I was trying to find out what Beau was barking at in one corner while I ignored where my feet were landing right in front of me. A good way to get dog poop on your shoe but you usually do not trod over a six foot black racer. The snake got out of the way.

Mentioned some of this to another Carol on her way out and will try to also relay the information to a third Carol the next time I see her at Doggie Doo Run Run.

A few year's ago it seemed to be all Pats-- both male and female. This year we have a lot of Carols. Kind of fitting for the Christmas and New Years' Season. A caroling I will go.
Funds for memorial bench for Benjamin Kramer and Chris.

Carol and Nancy were the first instigators of the Memorial Bench for Ben Kramer after he passed.
