My New Grandbaby?

Here is a picture of Ian and Liz taken at Mother's Day.  It was so good to have them here. I don't get to see them very often. They are both students, both working and trying to keep up with maintaining a house. Ian emailed me this week that they had a new addition at their house......

Yikes! A snake.  They've talked about bearded dragons (Terry P) for awhile but I guess this little guy just called out to them at the Reptile Show. He's a red-tailed boa and is about 18" long. Eats mice for now... Irene pointed out that it's easier to leave on vacation with a snake as opposed to most other pets. I guess that gets me out of grandma babysitting duty. Phew!
