    Hangin' out at VPI
    Chris was craving donuts, since he can't get any stuck wwaaaayyyyy out there in the country like he is, so he begged me to smuggle some to him from the "real world." :P

    No really....I went out there to pick up a copy of Pythons of the World Volume I and I brought Petra with me as well. (And I DID bring him a box of fresh Krispy Kremes :giggle: ) Dave and Tracy were busy that day, so we didn't get to visit with them this time, but it was great fun just chillin' with Chris and poking our noses into all those tubs and getting to play with some awesome snakes.

    Here's a few pics Chris took of us. (Like a true doofus, I forgot my camera...but Chris takes better pictures than me anyhow! LOL)

    I just fell in love with the beautiful face on this doll...

    Here's me and Petra holding a couple of those amazing reduced snakes Chris posted pics of the other day...

    Petra holding a pile of clowns...

    I think this is my favorite picture here...too cute!

    Petra was naming a bunch of their snakes while we were there. We named this one Peanut Butter Cup. Look familiar, Rapture??? ;) Chris was gonna let us take him home for $5 but I spent all my money on donuts that morning. :P

    Petra named this beauty Kara. Quite appropriate, wouldn't you say? :D

    Thank you Chris, for a lovely morning! I've spent hours pouring over my new book! :clap:

    Looks like fun Judy. I wish you would have smuggled one of those clowns out for me. It could look like a donut if it balled up just right.

    sssshhhhhhhhhh.... :whisper: I spoke with the lav-ablino and the bumblebee and we're planning a getaway. I'll tell 'em to pass the word down to the clown tubs, too. :D

    Sweet trip, Judy. Looks like Petra had a blast as well. I'd gladly do a donut run for a peek at VPIs racks. :)

    I'll tell ya....it's VERY hard to put some of these snakes back into their tubs. But they're usually too big to fit in my pocket!

    :ohmygod: I look terrible in those pictures. Especialy seeing as my hair was all frizzy. And I also named a baby Motley Skylar and a baby clown Sqito. They had pretty neat snakes there. I liked holding the bigger ones. And that bumble bee is just georgous. It was fun holding the clowns, because I pulled one out of the pile and Chris put it back, then I pulled another one and I felt like I was multiplying them.

    Those are great pics, Judy! Beautiful snakes and you have a lovely daughter--I can see the family resemblance :D You've got to ask the Bumblebees, Clowns and Lav. Albinos to talk to at least one Honey Bee to join in the great escape. You can then send him my way :D

    Looks like fun! I would have had to fight the urge to call Citi Bank and apply for a huge credit card on the spot to take a Bee home.. lucky there are no big breeders in my area!
    But why no pics of the elusive Cue? lol

    Hehehe....thanks everyone!

    Robin...you'll have to fly down here yourself and stay with me...and we can go over there together. Then YOU can figure out how to get those beauties past the guard cuedog! :sabduel:

    I never see much resemblence between me and Petra...or any of my kids, for that matter. You should see them standing next to their dad. He's apparently co-dom for gorgeous. :P (Well, ~I~ think so, anyhow!!)

    Jen...Cue was standing behind the camera that time...but next time I'll remember my own camera and try to snag a few funny shots. :halohorn:
