Back from vaca with tons of bp pics! Many pics!

I had the pleasure of topping off my vacation by hanging with some great friends. I'd like to thank Adam and Kelly for being such good hosts as well as Pete Kahl for the experience of getting lost in his snake rooms:O
These pics are in no particular order and I honestly forget what some of the combos were. This visit was a blast, and I can't wait to go back down!
Fell in love with this after seeing in person.

Awesome pictures Walt!

Thanks. Some of these animals are Pete's and some are Adam's....and a couple are now mine:) I think I can tell you who owns what snakes, so if you need to know I can probably get it right.

That's so awesome, Walt! And you got some GREAT pics!! Adam and Kelly are seriously good people! I miss 'em like crazy and wish I could visit sometime! I haven't had the pleasure of meeting Pete, but...someday! :D

Now then....I'm less concerned with which snakes belong to Adam and Pete....I wanna know which ones belong to YOU now!! :taz: :D

Those are some wicked snakes! Thanks much for the pictures! :D

Thanks, Judy. The pics were all pretty quick so I'm glad most were not bad. Well the stripey het pied girl and the Bee on the right now reside with me along with a het pied male and a really striped normal:)
Oh, and Adam and Kelly are just really amazing people and were just great to us.

WOW!!! I'm so Jealous!!!

Yes!! Please I'll take two..

I was in awe quite a few times I have to admit. I came home with a pair of het pieds and a super nice Bee. I'll post some pics after they are set up:)
If you look at the second group of pics you will see the het pied girl (striped) and the Bee on the right I believe is the boy I brought home.

So when will you show of your souvenirs??? :D

I'll try to snap some pics tomorrow, Deb. :)

I'm with Derek on this one.... I don't think I could have left under my own free will.

Looks like fun. :gj:

Glad you got some parting gifts.

I wasn't easy man. I really can't wait to go back.

:O That is a stunning Bee :gj:

Great pics, Walt. Let me know next time you go down and I'll meet ya there!

Wow....looks like such a fun time.

I wish, I could go do that.....freakin stupid Cali

Nice Bee! Thanks for posting the pic's Bro all of them are eye candy I'm loving it. Amazing animals nice to see Grandpa Pied.LOL

You're vacation pics could have been so much better Waltah. The Man, The Myth, The Lgend in his own mind was just there. BG is sorry you weren't lucky enough to meet him.:D


:tears::tears::tears::tears:BG misses the Candyman(first pic).:tears::tears::tears:

Awesome pics:) Bet the experience was a blast:)

No worries(been around a lot of Aussies lately)...Big Gunns is working on his new autographed pics for all his fans. BG will make sure you get signed copy.:D

Big Gunns had to make new ones. All the ladies were complaining he had his shirt on in the old one.:P:D

He was the first Pied imported into the U.S. I believe in the mid 80's. I could be way off here, but I think Pete has owned him since around 1994. He's the boy that started in all over here. That's just an amazing animal to have in your collection.

OHHHHH nice. I was wondering if Pete showed you Mr. Old Man Pied! I loved loved love loved that snake (and so many more) when I worked there. His face just looks very old and wise.

Nice picture of him, too!

Glad you had a good time down here.

You are correct, Pete got Mr. Old Man Pied in 1994 along with two hets. He proved them out in 1997 If I remember correctly.

Pete suspects that he is in his 20's. He was youngin when he was imported in the 80's.

Awsome pics Walt :bow: Thanks for sharing!!!!!!!!!!

Do you know if he is still breeding?:)
