Mowed... by marlboromaam

Mowed...

Shot in black and white. The backyard got mowed. Gone are the weeds, wildflowers and tall grasses. Sad, but we have to see the nope ropes! Killed a copperhead this past Saturday laying exactly where the puppy would've stuck his nose.
oh yikes, snakes. Clean cut is good one in a while :)

What are nope ropes and a copperhead?
June 1st, 2022  
I know what a copperhead is but also need to ask about nope ropes.
June 1st, 2022  
I googled these creatures. Well, safety is first!

Well, you can also see more of your pretty fence at least?
Nope rope is favourite term for a snake ever!

Time for the nope ropes to move on.

That's my main reason for mowing - want to know who's out there with me!

Oh, a dangerous snake! It looks very nice once mowed

That's a little scary!

@shepherdmanswife LOL! Nope ropes are a derogatory term for poisonous snakes. A copperhead is a poisonous snake with poison that spreads through the blood stream and the nervous system.

@wakelys Ha ha! See my reply to Shepherdman's Wife above. =)

@haskar Agreed!

@ljmanning Thank you, Laura!

@dkellogg Very much so! =)

@milaniet Yes, ma'am! I don't normally see them this early. It's usually July through October that I see the nasty buggers.

@corinnec Thank you, Corinne!

@danette It was scary. I had the heebie jeebies the rest of the day!

@marlboromaam now I understand 😊

@shepherdmanswife Yeah, I live in the sticks so snakes are common and poisonous snakes can be a problem, especially for nosy puppies. Copperheads are not endangered so I don't feel too bad about it. =)

It looks great mowed. A copperhead sounds scary. We have to constantly worry about ticks here with the tall grass You have a beautiful back yard!
