Daytona Pictures!!

[Roy Munson]

Lol, you should really try to quote Pee Wee a little less, wasn't it just last night you used, "Excuse me officer, can I at least zip up first?" :grin01:

Man, you better go next year, and we'll drag Mike along too. It's hard to believe, but it would have been ten times more fun running around the show with you two...

:roflmao: That cop told me if I paid my fine, no one would find out about it! :laugh:

Yeah, I'm going to see what I can do. It sounds like it was a blast!

 

[El Jefe]

Wow!

Daytona was a blast! It was really great to see all of you. Thanks for stopping by my table to let me know who you are so I can now put faces with the screen names. Sorry I missed the dinner but my brother came into town to see me and I haven't seen him in over a year and probably won't get a chance to see in for another year or so.... He is a crazy med student who is into international medicine and travels the globe to learn the tricks of the trade....couple weeks ago was is Columbia, South America trip and in a couple weeks he heads of for Cambodia and then North Africa. I don't have a lot of chances to see him so when came up I had to take it.

Again, sorry about missing the dinner but it was still great to see all of you.

Ready for it to be August 07 yet? :crazy02:

Understandable, and I would do the same. Stopping by everyones tables was great because we got to see the variety of everyones lines. It's one thing to talk about your projects and post some pics on here, but to actually see them in person puts it in perspective that pics don't do some of them justice.

Yeah, there might have been media coverage of that :grin01:

 

[Joni Garcia]

It looks like Daytona was definitely the place to be! Thanks for sharing pictures. Looks like you guys had a great time. Thanks again for posting pics... although it makes me wish even more that I'd been able to make it.

 

[westexherps]

All those pictures makes me wish even more I could have gotten to that dinner. We had some other obligations but hopefully next year we'll there. Enjoyed meeting (and spending money) with those of you I did meet and by the way Abraham (but he comes to Abe) and Miracle are doing very well...we got some new BARRS cages down there (didn't know how we were going to get the luggage back in the car) and they have brand new homes, now I just have to get Abe a few more girlfriends, with him there are just too many possibilities to choose from.....

 

[E.Crassus]

Woah, looks like heaven, the set up of the show is like one we have over here but about 100 times bigger lol.
When im a bit more aged in years im gonna have to get me over there to that, it looks amazing.
That albino gtp is amazing, shame about the price lol.
But yes in a few years expect to see me there, with my horde of UK reptile keepers lol :grin01:
:wavey:

 

[CaptBogart]

Yeah, there might have been media coverage of that :grin01:

Yes, and we'll set aside some bail money too.... :grin01:

I went by your table but you were busy at the time. Next year I'll introduce myself.

And BTW everyone, the Prairie King ate on the first try. Like Joe I'm a little apprehensive about buying animals from people I don't know. He is tiny and didn't look like he could take a pink. But he did, and I'm happy. :crazy02:

Completely understandable! And I am definately going to make sure I have money put aside to go a little more crazy next year! Wish we had a show like that twice a year instead of just once.

And next year we all need to encourage Mike and Dean to make it to the show with us. Imagine the time that would be! Bail money? We might need to get lawyers!! :crazy02:

Love the pics everyone - especially since I was too busy and forgot my camera both days. :bang: Jonathan and I had such a blast meeting everyone and seeing everyone at dinner. Katie - the boy hognose sold (you held the boy right?) but we still have the little girl...she's calling your name right now :grin01: Where's the group pic though? I know there were at least 3 or 4 cameras that got that shot. That way you can see all of us that came to dinner (except Bill Love and one other person - can't remember who though). I'm gonna go crash now - both my flights were delayed on the way home so I got around 3 hours sleep last night.

Yes, I held the boy. He was such a little darling climbing up my sunglasses! Maybe September? Have to see how my finances go!

I didn't get the group shot on my camera. I am not sure whose cameras did but there were at least 4, so hopefully someone will add that pic to this thread or post it somewhere on the forum! Would love to see it.

thanks for sharing the pics...i should've gone. anyone get any pics of bill and bruce at the theraphosid breeding project table? or take a look at their table even? probably where i'd have spent my money.

 

[Tyger9791]

cool pics...

ornate woods are awesome turtles...i have two. they're easy to care for and it's fun to watch them eat nightcrawlers or pinkies.

 

[Cflaguy]

Not that I know of...
