Matt,
I stayed at the Kentucky Reptile Zoo with Jim and Kristin (awesome folks) for a few days. We were there for academic reasons. We are doing graduate research on five-lined skinks and got a sample population from their property, we even helped Kristin with her telemetry data involving Timber Rattlesnakes. In fact, us Canucks managed to capture another specimen for her (a very rare occurence) and were taken out to dinner I will be heading back to spend three months with Jim and Kristin at the KRZ in the fall of 2004.

Emily,
I use a Canon A70, the greatest camera ever! Believe all the glowing reviews, this camera has it all.

Cheers,
RMB
