    What a day!

    Yesterday was by far the nicest day this spring here in the Minneapolis area.

    My wife and I turned on the gas fire pit, grabbed some beverages, put up the umbrella and I even let Jewel (Coastal Carpet Python) out for a deck rail session.



    The colors are unreal. the green and the blue. The yard is in top shape.

    Jewel is excellent for this type of R&R. She will sit motionless on the rail for an easy 40 minutes.


    Such a late bloomer. She's really put on the size.


    She could give Wallace (retic) a run for the length title.


    I hope everybody else found one nice day to get out this holiday weekend.

    Thanks for looking.

    All that grass...what is the matter with you man? You should see my mixed broad leaf mess...you'd go nuts.

    It was a wonderful day. I went and looked for some eastern hogs but it was to early, cloudy and the temp to low.

    The snake looks great and the view of the patio is not bad for a working man.

    Glad you're enjoyed the day friend because today is a washout. I dried 16 mangos, cleaned the bathroom, vacuumed and still pacing the rooms but the beverage will take care of that soon enough.

    I'm going to take some photos of the Pokigron female after next shed. She's of the age (13 or 14) where the tail is loosing red but the darkness filling in on the lats is awesome...I picked her up the other day and it reminded me of change with Rentfro's Pucallpa female. Appreciating the full span of change throughout the years is pretty cool.

    Be safe.​

    Jewel looks great as does everything else. Glad y’all are having a great holiday.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Your patio & back yard look like paradise, only to be made better by an incomparable snake on the railing. Not too shabby...

    That looks like such a beautiful day. Looks like your carpet python was having lots of fun doing railing missions, Jewel looks absolutely stunning in that sunlight. I've always loved how awesome carpet pythons look.

    Thanks for all the kind words folks. This can be the best time of year here.

    However, today was total wash out like BNS mentioned earlier in the thread. The price you pay for lush green grass and trees is a few washout days.

    We have a nice, private yard and I am able to take the animals out without worry.

    This fella doesn't mind the snakes, and loves a lazy afternoon on the deck.
