A grim night. We had to kill something.

I think most of you reading this will think I'm crazy, being sorry for having to kill a snake. But Randi and I hate to kill anything. I made Randi do it, and she cried the whole time, and I cried after. We felt so bad for the poor thing.

But it was a copperhead, in Rosa's stall. In fact, if Randi hadn't seen it, I would have stepped right on it when I was feeding. We didn't have a choice. It could have killed one of our horses or one of our dogs. So we had to do it.

I'm awfully sorry for the poor thing. But I still can't regret it. My roomie's a bit of a hero - she saved me from a trip to the emergency room, and maybe worse. And she saved Rose, too.

We don't even like to kill bugs, but there's a point where you have to consider it the natural order of things. :/ Thank goodness you all were okay and stayed safe in the process of it.
