Home run Ernie!
I never will forget the first e-mail that I sent to Mike years ago in Guyana.
I had bought a pair of Import Guyana Boas, that were some of the most unusual and well colored Boas, that I have ever seen and have regreted ever since selling them.
Mike caught them on Wakemon Island on the Essiquibo and I really convinced myself at the time, " MAN!! Boas from that Island must all be spectacular! "
That was pretty dellusional thinking, but hey " it takes what it takes to grow up and come to better understandings. "
Anyway, I had sent Mike an e-mail at that time, asking if he could get some more as I just knew that he must had found the Holy Grail Area down there.
Needless to say; " He laughed and responded that those were exceptions to the rule and everything on that Island went from ugly to pretty just like any other place. "
No differences, no exceptions.
In fact, in a conversation we had earlier today, I asked; " In all of your hunting and travels in Guyana and Suriname, have you EVER EVER, walked into an area and seen a population of Boas that you knew were the most beautiful Boas that you have ever seen and go back and frequent that area for the sole purpose of getting as many of these exceptional Boas as you could? "
Of course, the response was what I knew it would be; " He Laughed and laughed pretty hard. "
