Bye, Bye Merlin!

It's official...no more reptiles live in the Hickman household as of Friday evening! Can you believe that Dave posted an ad for Merlin on craig's list and got 13 people that were interested!? I must tell you that Dave put much time and effort into writing the ad and even thought of getting "interview" questions ready for the future adopter. As much as it is kind of funny how in depth he was in completing the process, it's definitely respectable that he wanted his pet to go to a good home. And, I think he got that. He already received a call today from the family that took the snake. She was apparently sitting on their dining room table at the time of the call??!!! Sounds like she'll have some free roam of the house. They've offered Dave visits and pictures whenever he wants.

In the minutes prior to her leaving...Dave had some lasts words with Merlin to explain that she was going to a better home. Ethan and I took a picture of Daddy with the snake so he could always remember her.
