A Fire Engine and a Snake

The Snake was 8 ft long and weighed 45 pounds. The Fire Truck was the usual huge red thing from Paraiso the nearest town to Orosi, where Ray and I live. It had a crew, wearing their usual heavy gear. All for one nonpoisonous snake!

The roof of our house is corrugated sheet metal with some translucent fiberglass panels to let the light in. Below these are plastic panels in the ceiling to let the light into the rooms. The snake had been living in the ceiling over my bedroom for some time.

I just saw it this morning, resting on a plastic part of the ceiling, and it took me a while to figure out what it was.
