    Would anyone be interested in finding a day when we can get together and take a "field trip" to the National Zoo? There are a few of us around the DC area, or within a nice day's drive. Wouldn't it be fun to meet some forum folks face to face? Or we could find some other place to meet and enjoy, if the Zoo doesn't appeal?

    Lemme know what ya think!

    I think it's a great idea, but it would have to be an overnight trip for us. DC is a four-hour drive from us. Once the weather stabilizes, say in April or May, I'd love to take the kids back the the zoo. It's been about 6 or 7 years since we've been there. Are there any big herp shows around there in the spring? That might be another option.

    If we time it right we could hit that big one in Manassas or Chantilly. Anything to stay outside the beltway lol.

    I'll check the dates on the shows. That's a good idea, too. Smynx and Smulkin can make a weekend of it hitting the show AND the zoo! And yeah...I was thinking along the lines of April or so to pull this off. I'll see when the shows are.

    Oh great and honorable Godfather....I was also thinking about suggesting a Road Trip to Daytona...to see how many of us might be able to get there. I wonder if it would be feasible to share expenses for a condo or something? I'm really hoping to drive out there with my daughter, but don't know for sure yet.
