Salazar Slytherin would be proud

I rescued a snake! It was in the road by a busy intersection. I was in the car with my mum so I got out and my mum pulled over and I caught the snake! It was a nice, big gopher snake. At first, I tried nudging it with my foot but it wasn't going anywhere. And then I thought it'd just go back into the road again to get warm so I took it across the road and up a hill where it's all wild grass. That's a good spot for a snake. I was talking to it and petting it a little to reassure it. I didn't realize but my mum could see that from the car so I guess the other drivers could see it too. Haha. And it wrapped itself around my arm. I'll bet I totally looked like the crazy snake woman.
