Ophidiophobia

Joe has terrible Ophidiophobia.

He's afraid of snakes.

Not just afraid - scream like a girl, heart pounding, nightmares for days, all-out fear.

So Friday, when we were doing yardwork (yay for working on days off!) when I heard a high pitched yelp - I knew it was nothing good.

A snake was in the garage! And usually, they're tiny - I laugh at him, and we shovel it out. But this was a big, fast sucker!
No luck inside - but chased it into the yard - armed with a broom handle a shovel, he KILLED it!

Ok, so mostly he injured it enough o shovel it down the storm drain, but still! So proud of him!

And no nightmares yet!
