Topic: My road cruising thread [PICS ADDED]

I thought I would start a thread that I will update as I road cruise. First is a repost from the night of the 5/4:

They sure are moving, but I think prime road cruising time is still a little ways away. With that said, I did go out last night. Found a ribbon two browns and a rough earth. One of the browns and the rough earth were thick. They are predicting temps in the 90s for today and tomorrow.

Took the long way home after going out to dinner tonight. Temps ranged from 72-74. Also got to listen to the Hogs beat ole miss.

2 AOR Southern Copperhead

After picking up a lovely Northern Pine Snake, I opted for a dinner of a special calzone and some beer at Vino's. This made it late enough to do a little road cruising on the way home. Things turned out fairly well.  smile

I got a text that I thought was spam....lol. It says "Money. Go" and a bunch of odd symbols. Must've been a glitch in the communique!

Time to update.

I opted to head up north a week ago Saturday. Jeremy, Van and I did do some cruising. The day was hot, I could tell during my midday hungover bike ride, and it was a new moon. We should of had great success, but we did not. We found:

1 DOR Gartersnake
1 DOR Timber Rattlesnake
1 AOR Copperhead
1 AOR Rough Earthsnake, aka Coral food

I could not let Thomas keep showing me up, so I went to my Scarletsnake spot last Saturday night. I thought I would see more with the heat, but not much in the way of numbers. Found were:

1 DOR Rough Greensnake
1 DOR Buttermilk Racer, well it was in LA
1 AOR Speckled Kingsnake
1 AOR/1DOR Scarletsnake

Now that makes three years in a row. Well mine have all been road cruised, so Thomas you still have one up on me by flipping them. I did take some pics of the king and Scarletsnake. Will put them up later.
