The Sawbriar at Big South Fork

On tonight's episode of "What's Happening at The Sawbriar"...

After Rhonda rescued a snake from a sticky trap and returned him to duty, we apparently gained a new employee.

This little gray treefrog checked in without a reservation, claimed the best room in the house, and has spent the evening conducting quality control on the bug population.

Payment accepted in mosquitoes. 🐸

Rhonda rescued a black rat snake from two mouse glue traps tonight.

After a successful extraction and rehabilitation effort, he was promptly returned to the storage building where he can continue doing exactly what black rat snakes do best—eating mice.

He has been rehired as Head of Rodent Control and will resume his duties immediately.

Benefits include free lodging and all the mice he can eat.

Let's just say Fred has been spending a lot of time looking north lately. 👀

More details soon.
