NRBE: Friday set-up - and why girls rule

I've finally arrived at the National Reptile Breeders' Expo. After getting delayed for an eternity by Delta in Atlanta, I rolled into the Hilton two hours late. Thanks to my driver and partner in crime for the day, Chris Law, I had a ride waiting for me. Check in and lunch at the Hog Wild BBQ then off to set up.

First in the door I got to see one of my favorite gals, Collette Sutherland. We had a meeting as to why herper girls rule. The reason? Because we are girls.

Set-up was pretty much done, but I did get to chat with Jeff Clark for quite sometime. We talked about a lot of the changes from over the years that we have seen. Changes in how people start, how they learn and what we have seen over the years. I felt like an old-timer here.

Here are a few shots of some stuff that I get excited about to tide ya over, under the bump. Tonight I am heading into the talks for a bit and then Chris and I are hooking up with some other friends and hitting the pavement. I am becoming a real herper; I remembered to pack flashlights and my brand spanking new headlamp!
