Sounds like three of you were pretty upset.
You.
Your wife.
The buzzard.
Glad nobody was hurt and you got a great story out of it.

Couldn't make up a story like that if you tried! Just be glad you didn't have a wreck! That will be retold many times I am sure,by request of who ever hears it.

This isn't snake related but we had a boss who used to scream and yell because he thought we didn't put the garbage in the 30 yd dumpster we had next to our building. So here he is off on his usual rant about the garbage. Three of us were looking out the window when this was going on. A whole bunch of seagulls were chowing down on the scraps and what they didn't want ended up on the ground. We started laughing which only served to have him reach new heights with his rants. Finally I had the nerve to tell him look out the window. As the gulls were really in rare form. the look on his face was well worth the look of wrath when he turned around after seeing seeing the gulls making a mess. Frank

In years to come it will be "tell the snake story" at family and friend gatherings. I am glad the wife was not hurt.

Now that's a great story to wake up to!! Like Vonn says, you can't make this stuff up! Glad no one was hurt, sorry it had to happen to you, but I sure enjoyed the story.
Those water snakes can really smell bad when they want to.

Glad for you that you didn't wreck after that happening. My wife would have reacted the same or worse as she too has a phobia about even Gardner snakes we get here. More than once I've had to assure her the one that scared her was gone.
I'm sure too it'll make a good future story to tell but probably not so funny to you just yet.

A live snake
A dead snake
And a stick that looks like a snake."

About 20 years ago I was driving down I 5 in my 1958 Studebaker pickup with the windows rolled down doing around 70 MPH. This was in the Sacramento Valley near Williams. I noticed a Great Blue Heron approaching from the east at about the height of my open window. I applied my brakes and he applied his air brakes and we just missed each other. It still gives me the heebe jeebes just thinking about what that big long beak of his would feel like sticking out of my temple.
