Oh please, Oh Please, Oh Please

While out shopping tonight I was driving by the entrance to our local super Walmart. When I stopped to let the pedestrians go in and out of the building I recognized a guy leaving. He works at the local pet shop I deal with. I gave a honk to my horn and he turned to see who the jerk was honking at him. He recognized me and give me an indication he wanted to talk to me. I pulled out of the way so we could talk. Once at my vehicle he asked if I had any business cards on me. As he took it he said "I saw an albino garter snake in my yard but didn't catch it because I didn't have your number" My jaw dropped and instructed him to go home and find it He said he'd see what he can do.
I hope to get a call soon and add another albino to the Ranch. Probably a Iowa (T-) T.radix (Plains Garter Snake)

you lucky dog!!! I don't have anyone coming up to me with albinos.......

Seems to be a good little population of albinos in your neck of the woods

Catch first, ask questions later.

No kidding Chris! Thats how I feel about this guy down the street, of course he had no idea anyone on his street cared about albino snakes until yesterday. My fingers are crossed for you Steve. Any chance Mark would want to come over and give me a hand looking around here? I should call him. Although I think going out and herping the woods or a field may be a little different then herping my neighbors..., knocking at every door first, "excuse me, do you mind if we search your yard for snakes". Hope the guy calls!

No word from this guy yet but I've got my fingers, toes and eyes crossed.
Makes it kind of hard to type and especially hard to walk and see but anything to help.
