Garden buddy

When we were working on the garden fence, Darren stumbled upon a garden friend. He found a garter snake and caught it for the boys to see. We later decided to name it Phocas after St. Phocas who is one of the patrons of gardeners. This morning I found out that there is a different St. Phocas who is the patron against snake bites. I think we picked the right name after all.

We are hoping our garden buddy does his best to keep unwanted pests out of our veggies! St. Phocas help us with our garden.
