Reply to Need help identifying snake found in backyard by D3ATH_ADDER

Could be a Northern Water Snake. Although the ones I’ve seen around here have an orangish tint to the underside.

Edited to add: I think the brown snake ID is correct.

Reply to Is there any practical reason to use the turnpike over RT 295 once you are south of exit 5? by Acceptable_Reading21

At exit 4, 295 and the Tpk exits are very close so that would be the place to cross over. But 295 south of exit 4 sucks and the 295/42 construction can be a massive headache depending on the time of day. On some holidays, 295 south of the construction can be much better than the TPK going south but you still end up merging with all the traffic at the DMB.
