Hey Joe,

Just FYI, #554 under the Black Gap speciman photos that you have listed as "unknown" is actually a photo I took of John Martins 1991 Black Gap male that he collected very early {may 3rd] about 2.5 north of La Linda. I paid an astonomical amount for this wild caught male only to have it die of respiratory illness during its first hibernation!!! I've never paid even half as much since for any snake. Live and learn.

By the way, kudos to you for all the work you've done on the alterna maps and image gallery. I know its a lot of work with no pay but everyone who looks at it appreciates what you've done. If no one has done so allready I would like to make a nomination for the August wild caught of the month: John Fraser's west of Sanderson 12" female. Since no one has caught any Gap snakes this year, that I know of, this is the closest one to it. Thanks again Joe. BA
