I'm with you TIS. I'm very afraid of snakes. They have had snake warning signs permanently posted at every park over here for years but luckily I haven't seen a snake yet. Once they start building homes, you're right, all the poor animals have to find somewhere else to go. Hopefully, far away from you and your neighbors.

Our town looks pretty awful with all the grass dying out so it is great that they are recycling water over by you.
