"Official" I'm here! thread: Chicago NARBC

My wife and I made it here around 5:00 Illinois time. We are actually down the road from the convention center about 9 miles but it was MUCH cheaper this way. We will also be investing in a GPS this winter...many of the exit signs where down and there was much construction. We drove way past and had to turn back...but we made with some help from a local and we where not to far away.

Can't wait for tomorrow! Now must find food!

Heath... I am GREEN with envy right now!!!


Lol, I actually just planned out travel for marketing event going on in Chicago this weekend... many of my coworkers will be there. Shoulda asked to come and snuck away to the show!!! Damn!

I hope you have an awesome time!

I'm driving my wife nuts LOL, I can't wait until tomorrow. There isn't much to do tonight so now that we have food we are sitting in the room watching hotel cable.

Don't forget to take lots of pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And have fun, do you know what you wanna get?

Today I picked up a little female Chrildren's...not to many around the show but I was able to pick out where they where hidden. There is an adult female I may buy tomorrow but I'm not sure yet. My wife out of the blue said she misses the pair of boas we raised for a short time and then traded off. She is actually thinking of picking up a red tail now! Well hey I can't say no to that. She also may bring home a small terrarium for a frog setup.

Here are some teaser pics of MY purchase:

And of course with the purchase of such a large species the proper tool was also purchased:

We walked today until we couldn't walk any longer. Every time we passed the isles I saw something that I hadn't noticed before. They may have to change the name of the conference to "North American Ball Python Breeder's Conference" LOL holy cow is there a LOT of ball pythons there.

Well I have to feed my wife again...if it where not for her I would probably forget to eat all this weekend!

Great pics, Heath! That is one little bugger... he's adorable!

Glad to hear your wife is coming back over to the boa dark-side... we do, indeed, have damn good cookies :D

Very cute!
Thank God for the hook or you would be in trouble :P
