So, I am at work, and we pull up to a customers house and she is hysterical. There is a snake with a "triangle" head. So I get excited and get some tools together. I found nothing other than a checkered garter snake , flattening itself out and doing it's "Look out!! I am a big bad pit viper....grrrr...strike strike" I got it in a bucket and she wanted me to kill it and I said no I will relocate it. Her husband walked up to me and HANDS ME A HUNDRED DOLLARS!!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it. I get to do some "field" herping and get a hundred bucks. I was worried that It would be very stressed, but I took it to our shop and went to a rock where there are lots of salamanders and threw one in and it ate it right up.

Here are some pics of the little pot of gold. Sorry they are bad, I used a cell phone.
