Draining the coolant is done so that you can access the thermostat. You don't have to drain it much, just lowering the level below the upper radiator hose. There should be a drain cock towards the bottom of the radiator on the drivers side of the car. That way you can drain it into a bucket and not make a puddle for the woodland critters to drink it and die.
