Cold Blooded

We've been studying the sun and it's impact on Earth's climate, our weather, and life on our planet. While doing our section on cold-blooded animals, Drew asked if he could hold a snake. My first reaction was, NO WAY!!! I'm not exactly fond of snakes and our most recent encounter with one was rather unpleasant, but I decided to take the opportunity to swallow my fear and follow my son's adventurous spirit. We sought out a friend who passionately breeds and cares for these beautiful creatures, and Drew got to hold them, learn about them, and admire them.... as for me.... well I admired them behind the safety of my camera lens. :)
