Ok, who's gonna be there?



And what do you look like?


I'm bald and I'll be walking around with my lovely wife who's a brunette that's way outta my league. Stop me and say "hey!"

Where is it at?

South of Tacoma WA. At the Puyallup, washington fairgrounds.

My husband and I (Sandy & Elliot) will be there but not until btw 2 and 3 in the afternoon on saturday. We plan to head for Pam's Chams, and spend sometime discussing husbandry and breeding issues with her. If I can find a photo of us that doesn't look too awful (we're middle aged, mind you) I will post it.

I had posted a thread in the lizard lounge:

Pacific Northwest Expo

I wonder why lizard lounge posts don't show up on the main page. You only see them if you go directly to the forum or select "new" posts.

Anyway, sounds like Royden and Gesang will be there in the afternoon. I'm going to be there at 10:00 or shortly after opening. Not sure how late I can stay yet. I'm hoping to be there until 3:00 or so. I do have to leave around that time. My husband and I have a family event to go to and I can't get out of it. I will be the one looking like a kid in a candy store. Short brown/ highlighted blonde hair wearing a black mid-length leather coat with a black fur collar (I'm going to assume our crappy weather is here to stay for awhile). I will have spent some time with Pam so she can point me out. Hope to see you all there

Cool! Hope to see you both there! (I will also be in a black leather jacket)

I'll probably be there between 1:00 and 3:00. But that's a guess.

Hello again to Royden and Gesang (Sandy and Elliot)! I had a great time meeting you at the show. Wished I could have gone out to dinner with you after the show. The best part of the show was definitely hanging out with you and Pam (Pam's Chams). Hope you (Sandy and Elliot) got you new Sambava pair safely situated at home. I had to rush home and practically throw my new ones into their cages before I had to rush off again with my husband to a family get together. We will all have to get together before the next show. I hope the other nice fellow we met there will join this group too.
Bye

Yes, it's wonderful to put faces with names, and get to know the real person behind the avatar. None of us got to go out to dinner, though. Maybe next time. The Sambavas are doing great. Eating, drinking, basking, and checking out their new digs. Pam was very helpful, and I really appreciate her selling me that beautiful pair of Sambavas. I learned a lot more from both of you during our converstations. I think it would be fun to get together.

This was the first such show we've attended, and there were so many things I had intended to investigate there, that it was a little overwhelming. And that was a small show, no doubt, compared to most. My camera enjoyed the day, tucked safely in the glove compartment, completely forgotten.

Sales of chameleons seemed to be good. Just during the time we were there quite a few things sold, at Pam's and the 2 other booths that had chams. One guy apparently showed up there with a few Johnstons that sold early.

The other guy that was there at Pam's booth with us was a fellow, from Seattle, named Ed. Very nice guy who recently lost his chameleon, Bernie (I think). Ed's thinking of getting another cham, and Elliot encouraged him to check out this forum to see the kind of great support that would be available to him.

Greetings, Royden! That was really neat getting to meet you and Ruth at Pam's booth. We had a good time. The time flew by so fast. Pam's chameleons are GORGEOUS! Elliot wants to do Ambilobes, but just not yet. This is an expensive habit, and we've really laid out the bucks lately. Maybe next year. Oh, and we did end up getting Dubias before going home. Lord, help me. And I mean that. I now call our feeder room "My Little House of Horrors".

We have decided to refer to them as beetles, and I see that others on the forum call them Hawaiian Papaya Beetles.

We have a couple staying with us next week during a church conference, and I asked Elliot to PLEASE not tell them about the (spooky organ intro here) feeder room

That was a ton of fun! My first reptile expo!

It was great to meet you all, I wish you all lived a little closer so I could see your setups and all your animals. What a blast.

Made me want to trade in my veiled for a panther though. I've never seen such amazing colors.

Here's my blog post from the day along with pictures.
