Snake Encounters


Another rainy day cancelled soccer practice on Tuesday so went to the PTA meeting instead. I'm not a fan of the PTA meetings. Very little productive happens because the attendance is too high. Attendance is high because they plan something fun for the kids so that the kids will drag the parents to the meetings. Part of the school's ratings are based on how active the PTA is which is shown by meeting attendance and overall sign up rate. You get a school directory for free if you join or you can buy one later but the price is the same as joining.

Tonight's entertainment was a visit by Critterman (or the Snake Guy). He brought with him a few dozen of his favorite snakes and was very entertaining. The kids got to "pet" his largest snake on the way out.

There's nothing quite like a snake hug to make your day! I actually have a photo of Kali and me with a large boa in Malaysia, too.
