I thought I was going to be able to set up my table in a couple hours. It did not happen that way. Too many fantastic snakes to see and old friends to talk to. I probably saw less than a quarter of the snakes because many vendors setup their displays and equipment friday and then put the snakes on display on saturday. There were lots of interesting Boas to see. The Boas were only outnumbered by the Ball Pythons.

>>Folks are already setting up at the biggest snake party in the world! Part of me wishes I were there. But part of me, a bigger part, is glad I get to sleep in my own bed and don't have to deal with the stresses of hauling a mess of animals and stuff to that show.

>>The big question is, will there be anything revealed that has been heretofore unknown to the vast majority of we Boa Whackos out here? In 2001 this woman was running around with the funkiest whitest thin saddled Anerythristic I had ever seen. It was 2002 when I first laid my enormous eyes on the nearly completely black Motley Argentine that John Mack had produced. I still think that was and is the single most impressive Boa I have ever seen. It was 2003 when I had the good fortune to show off the single orangest Albino Boa the world had ever seen. In 2004 I saw the lipstick Sunglow that the Burkes had produced along with some of the wildest jiggly Jungle Boas that Killer Boas had made. I missed last year but did not hear about any single stand out.

>>So will there be anything really outrageous at the Daytona snake party this year? Maybe the Chicago show, where I will be attending, will be the chosen location for some great new unveiling... Who knows? I truly hope we see some really outrageous examples of new something or others at both shows. I can't wait to hear and see what pops up! This is and will continue to be a really great year for Boa Constrictors and those of us who are CRAZY about them!

>>I just hope that some of those guys, like Top Notch Ryan, have those cameras in hand and can post those pictures while they are still at the show! I hope to see something mind blowing and I just CAN'T WAIT!!!
