    Tampa show was great!
    I went to the Tampa show Saturday and it was packed! All the tables were sold out - lots of good stuff to look at and fun exhibits. I took a ton of pics. Best of all, I came home with a pretty little Pinstripe girlie that I got from Graziani. I keep wanting to take her out and look at her some more - she's gorgeous! Who else went to the Tampa show? What did you get?

    I LOVED it. I was about to explode from excitement! My first show. I LOVED the Graziani table. OMG he had the most incredible bee on earth. It looked like a killer bee. He showed me both to compare. Awesome. OMG! I was sooo excited. I loved it.

    We picked up some sweet animals.

    Yeah I went, but all I came back with was a PE-1 tempgun which so far is really handy. I think I may have seen you there, I was that little (13 y/o) boy with a green shirt on and brown hair that asked to see your snake and complimented on it.. were you her? If not then I am mistaking you for some other lady with a new pinstripe in a bag at the graziani table :)

    If you are curious, I took A LOT of pics at the expo: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showthread.php?t=95054
    Be warned though it is a DUW :)

    Thanks, and oh yes it was extremely cool :) The vendor was also extemely nice, I just said "Can I please hold the rhino rat?" and he said "sure" which made me happy because usually people underestimate me when it comes to reptiles. I was very pleased with myself because at the Graziani table I asked about genetics for a Sterling Silver and Greg leaned over tothe other guy at the table and said "that is a smart kid" :)

    I wish I could go to every single reptile show! I'm going to the show in Arizona that's in November (14th-15th). I think it's going to be really cool, maybe even better than last year!

    I went on Sunday. All the snakes there were so beautiful and I got to hold a pied, the top morph on my list! I'm upset how expensive they are though, I had the 'Gimme Gimmes' so bad, but I can't get another snake anyway until we move. Small apartment.. :(
