So after doing all my morning chores yesterday I needed to get out of the house. So I decided to go for a walk. I make it up the road not far at all from the property when I see this big black snake slithering across the road. What perfect timing to be going for a walk!!! My heart started racing with excitement! I pulled out my camera and started filming this short video. He didn't even try to get away from me.
The snake was HUGE!!! I've caught a few black rat snakes in my day but never this big. He wasn't quite 6 feet long and I got the measuring tape out to see. I wanted to know exactly how long he was. I measured out 5 feet. As you can see he isn't stretched out all the way even at 5 feet. So my guess is he is around 5 and a half feet long. The only other black snake I ever caught bigger then this was when I caught an Indigo Snake in Florida when I was a little boy growing up. I was about 10 or 11 years old.
I let him slither around the yard some so I could get some more good pictures of him.
Now for some selfies :-)
Of course I had to bring the snake in the house. Believe me when I say that my wife 
Now to enter this snake in Papa Pepper's photo contest. I'm sure he will be thrilled!
