I haven't posted in a while.I've been offshore for 21 days.Going to Galveston for three days of open sea night rescue school ,right after I get home,is usually a neusance at best.But I actually arrived here in Galveston about an hour ago with a smile on my face.I had the pleasure of meeting forum member Todd Westin on my way down.It's good to see people who really care about the animals in their charge.It's evident,looking at the beautiful,healthy animals lounging around his place.You've got a good thing going,Todd!You also cook the best brisket in texas,hands down.No B.S. If you ever get up to Arkansas,come by and I'll have a pot of jambalaya made,maybe fry some frogs.

A couple of very nice aldabras.These are first I've ever seen.Fell in love immediatly.Never realized they could move as fast as they can.

Oh, man...the most important pictures were moved or removed from your photobucket account. I wanted to see the two of you. Can you put them back?

I have no doubt the two of you got along great. Wish I could have been there.

I can't see about half the photos either.

The pics came through this time. Where are your overalls? I almost didn't recognize you? Haha. Dr. Westin, that is a gorgeous Leopard. Do you know the history and origin?
