I just wanted to make a quick post to thank Rob Carmichael for showing me and my girlfriend around his facilities this past friday. The place is very well set up with the animals all in excellent condition and some nice looking cage designs as well. I would encourage anyone who is in the area to stop by and check out his facility as his animals are amazing and his knowledge of them very thorough.

Thanks again Rob for a great day out there. My girlfriend and I both had an amazing time and the drive was definitely worth it.

A visit to Rob's place is definitely on my to-do list. Gonna try and get to his Reptile Rampage in April.

jThanks for the nice words Chip (and Bill),

It was great having you and your girlfriend over for a visit and I enjoyed showing you around. It's always a treat for me to talk to guys like you who share a passion for rattlesnake conservation and even better, it was great talking to you about some other places that I haven't been to (and appreciate your generosity in providing some info on localities for me to go to for my future herping trip to the wonderful state of Az). We are getting ready to launch www.thegrassisrattling.com and want to talk to you about adding some of your research to this site...we'll talk soon.
