What a nice patina

I almost made it there in 2006, unfortunately my wife, who is terrified of heights, had a panic attack on the road heading down to the town. The sheer drop-offs and lack of guard rails were too much for her and I had to stop and turn around a couple miles from the town. I was really looking forward to seeing the place. :(

Came across these two while weeding my garden

In the 6th grade our teacher was a reptile fan. One wall of the class room was windows from one end to the other and the counter next to the windows was covered in reptile cages. Lots of snakes and lizards many of them captured by us students. One of my classmates caught a gopher, a rather large gopher :eek: and brought it to class to feed the snakes. Cage had king snakes, gopher snakes, garter snakes, just whatever non-poisonous we cold find some as big around as our wrists others not much bigger than our thumbs. One of of the little ones got a little over zealous and managed to engulf this huge gopher :rolleyes: sometime after we left class the day before. We came back from our morning recess and our instructor was waiting for us at the door. "Hurry in and get your books. We'll be having class in the cafeteria for the rest of the day." The little gopher snake had barfed up his big breakfast/gopher and the smell was unbelievably vile

thats cool

my kids have axolotls and i always feed them red trout worms (and keep about a dozen or so rosy red minnows in the tank for them to hunt and snack on)
one day the didnt have my trout worms, so i bought a tub of night crawlers instead
i cut one in half and let each of them have one

come to find out, half a crawler is big enough for them to swallow, but too big to digest
that crawler looked absolutely disgusting after they puked it back out again, but at least it didnt stink since they live under water



as for the snake, i think he'll keep it down, he scurried off quite happily
