Next in our cavalcade of survivors: another vine snake. Once again, Roxie brought her "prize" up onto the terrace to play. And that she did: throwing and tossing the serpent into the air, clawing it, rolling on it, and when she needed a break, sitting on it. Finally, again for all intents and purposes, the snake lay dead on the stairs, Roxie losing interest. But, when I went to pick it up and toss it over the wall, it was more than ready to take a nip outta me. So, I used a dust pan and chucked it.
