Hello everybody
Lately i'm doing arts & craft shows down in Florida.They're not outstanding shows but i do make some money to pay the bills :) At this past show in Dunedin,FL i had a unusual meeting with a pet. This guy came into my booth looking at my pens and i noticed something coiled around his arm:confused:
Then i noticed that the coil started to move and realized that it was a real snake.I had to ask and he said that it is 2 year old Python and about 2 feet long.I asked if the snake was tame and he answerd if i wanted to hold the Python and so i did.What a great experience!Something else i can strike of my lifetime to do list.I mean, when do you get an opportunity for a meeting like this.This is another reason why i do penturning for a living.

:eek: Not sure I'd have the guts to hold a python, tame or not.

I think would be quite creeped out by holding that thing...probably what would get me through it is thinking about how many pens you could make out of it...just kidding;)!! You're right, though, Robert that is definitely a unique experience. Good for you. And thanks for sharing the photo - I will stick to living vicariously through you on this one!!
