The fair was a lot of fun, guys. :) We spent the weekend showing inverts and herps, talked to lots of people. It was pretty cool.

I'll post pics, soon!

In the mean time, here's a photo of Sean holding a scorp. that made the cal poly news mentioning CRIS.  (with a small typo) lol

Ricky and Traci Roach came down to help at Ken's tables and we were lucky enough to share a block of tables with them! It was good fun. :)

Photos to come!

Here are some pics from the SCABIES folk. We were shoulder to shoulder with them on Sat before we moved over to Ken's block on Sunday.

Good to have seen you there Edgar.
The show was nice, but it was a poor turn-out in my opinion... at least compared to last year. Last year's show was right next to the pumpkin patch and drew in a lot more onlookers, some of those walked away with a newfound knowledge of many critters and many walked away with some critters of their own!

I hope next year we go back next to the pumpkin patch and get a better sized crowd :)

You guys seem to have done a good job, good to see Denise and Sean there as well.

Thank you for coming by Ricky, enjoy your lady parahybana, and it was nice to see all the new things Ken had at the table... too bad he couldn't join us this time around.
