Terry, Like that sweetbox song....life is cool (especially when your a herper). I have a million stories about hunting west texas. Every night was an adventure and you get to hang around with such a crazy mix of characters. I guess when you take a group of people from all walks of life, rich and poor, young and old, but all with a common interest and mix them all up on the back roads of texas, you can't help but to have an experience that will always be remembered. Remind me to relay a story about a C. scutulatus I found one night (I will save it for a later time).

I would love to make it back there to visit guys like Buzz and Ron and marylin Tremper and some of the other guys I used to enjoy BSing with but I have so many things going on in my life right now it will probably not happen any time soon. I guess that is where this forum will act as a replacement. Seems like some very cool guys on it and now you can make that W. Texas jaunt and relay the stories for me to enjoy.

If you ever see Buzz ask him if he remembers me. I do not think he can forget, it was his first time "road cruising" in an RV. He thought I was crazy but after he did it he thought it was great. Not only do you get to travel in style (don't have to stop to go to the bathroom or make a cup of coffee) but sitting way up high in an RV you get such a great view of the cuts.

Anyway, got some trinkets in yesterday in a shipment from the US. Have you ever kept them? I have had them before but always sold them before they got any size to them. I am thinking of keeping a pair back. I also have an amel trinket i got last month so maybe i will keep a trio. I love their threat display.

Gotta run now,

Thanks, Don
