Meet up wit Bob C. today at 9:30 to do some things for a exhibit tommorow at one of the local colleges. Had a pretty good time there. Then we were definatly in herp mode today and took a trip a little more south to Fayette County.
Hit a few spots myself and John have been to a few times. Lost time for two hours then we desided to check on the copperhead population that everyone knows exist but noone I know has ever seen one. Good thing Bob was there cause I would have never found them where they were. But it was alot of searching to find one then we were on a roll.
