My Heart is still POUNDING!

By Katy Leakey

Sitting at my desk, wrapping up a fun day of designing new products, I heard a loud brushing sound at my open office tent flap.  I looked over and smiled, thinking it was a cat come to play and saw the largest black mamba I’ve ever seen! It was at least 15’ long, winding his way into my tent just a yard from my feet.  I stood up. He reared. We both waited to see who would make the first move.  After about 30 VERY LONG seconds, he backed away and slithered off into the brush again.  My heart is still pounding!!!
