That's a great story, thanks for sharing. I bet you were mad at Mom for a long time. Eight bucks!?! Multiply that by 100... and it's still not enough... for a *baby* Indigo these days!



Thanks for the compliments, I'm curious to see how big my Indigo

gets. I can't even imagine how awesome a 9 foot specimen would be to see in person.



Thanks,

Ed









>>LOL!!,....AWESOME! that must have cost a pretty penny to say the LEAST!

>>

>> Which reminds me,...you will just LOVE this!....back around 1972 or so, some older kids came to my house and wanted to sell me an absolute "MONSTER" of an Indigo,...in fact, it was the largest I've ever seen in my entire life(8.5 - 9 ft long).

>>

>> The REAL irony in this story is,...those kids wanted to sell it to me for $8.00 bucks!!!,..YES, EIGHT whole dollars!,,hahaha!

>>

>> The very SAD part is,....being only twelve years old back then, I didn't HAVE eight bucks!

>>

>> I kept harping to my mom to please buy it for me, and that I'd literally do ANYTHING in the way of chores afterwards....Well, she claimed I wasn't getting very good school grades at the time, so I had to watch those two kids march off into the sunset with that BEHEMOTH of a serpent draped over both their shoulders, never to be seen again..........wow!,...those were truly different times back then,.....less than a dollar per foot for that noble beast!!!,...Oh!, what a painful memory it was!..LOL!

>>

>> anyway, thanks a bunch for posting that great looking Indigo!
