Well, the mercury hit 13C today, and we went for a nice walk in one of the city's conservation areas. One which I haven't been to since I was a kid, and boy- oh- boy........ it was garter heaven!!!!!
We must have found twenty or so garters of various sizes around the pond, and the kids even got to witness a pair mating. Very cool!
BUT..........that's not the best part.
We have a new snakie!!!!
I believe it is a ribbon snake, but I won't bet my life on it. I'll post pics as soon as the kids are in bed for the night, and let all you pros tell me what you think (provided my photos are good enough to even tell!!)

I'll be back soon!
