Hmmmm.... 5-6 hours of gorgeous scenery by car... Steven, would this lecture be suitable for total newbies? Would you please remind us again as the date approaches? I haven't gotten all of my kid's upcoming sports schedules yet and just agreed to do some traveling with a friend in January, but I'm definitely interested!

The lecture is open to all ages. There is a museum fee, but it's miniscule (I'll get more details). I will be going into detail regarding some of the morphology and evolution of these animals which may include some terminology new to some, but I usually take the time to explain things and put them into context.

It would be great to meet you and your kids. I do a lot of kids' lectures on the topic.

Hows the presentation coming along, Steven?

I was looking at your list - I have all but about 3 of those snakes!

I'm bummed... that "traveling with a friend" I agreed to is the same weekend... we'll be in sunny(please?) Arizona watching great danes & their humans trot around in a circle. LOL

Sounds like a blast Tami. Hey, whatever floats your boat. Some people dont understand why I like to drive out into the desert and look for snakes. Seems obvious enough to me, but...

Weather permitting I’ll be there coming in from Washington.
I could drop off the wife in Portland and then proceed. If not April for sure I'm there. I lived in Smith River for a short period and loved the area. Also lived in Bend, Or. and ... etc.

I'm pretty easy going and enjoy many things... she's a dane breeder & exhibitor. She bred my boy and we developed a great friendship because of him She has an RV and we've done a ton of travelling together. Fun stuff. We were discussing whether I would get another pup or not and she said, "I just want my travelling partner back." Well, heck, I can do that without a PUPPY! So off to Arizona it is I'll think of you as we drive through the desert

[Loren]

cool Hope you have a good trip.

Hey All!

Just a quick update (as we are still unpacking from our move and have to set up the zoo) on the herp presentation. It's Saturday, January 17th at 1:00PM at the Humboldt Sate University Natural History Museum in Arcata, CA. I'm only supposed to run for an hour and a half, but the museum education coordinator said I could go over (as we all know, us herpers can yak for hours on end!). I'd totally be flattered if anyone from the forum made it! My Zoology professor will hopefully be there to keep me on edge. LOL
