Sea Serpent

So I fell asleep early yesterday and ended up waking up around six this morning. I went out on the deck to have a cigarette (shut it Spare). There was a snake swimming past in the pond that my apartment complex has, and in that fog of focus you get in the morning where you really only see the thing you looking at and nothing in the periphery it looked huge like one of those blurry pictures of Loch Ness. As I paid it a little more attention I realized it was only about three feet long and there was a duck giving it a wide berth, but that was about it. Something you'd only think about early in the morning when you aren't quite awake.

Your pool has a lot of wildlife. How did you manage to move to the city and still be in the country somehow?
