Snake in the Garden

Adam and Eve   (public domain manuscript, c. 950)

Finding a snake in the garden has not gone well since biblical times.  Mistaking one for a hose could be even worse.

The latter recently occurred when a Long Island woman noticed a long curvy thing in her driveway.  She did not associate it with snakes, or even with devilish serpents.  Suffolk County, New York is a bit far from Eden.

When she realized her mistake, the police were called.  They managed to wrestle the eight-foot invader into a garbage can, and are warning that its buddies could pose a threat to pets and children.
