Could someone please get this taped? I'm honestly tempted to fly down just to see Andrew. He rocks my socks.

It went great, we had a decent turnout and Andrew was awesome! Hes very down to earth and gave us a great presentation, needless to say I learned a lot!
He mainly spoke about all the different species and subspecies, went into a little bit about hybrids and intergrades (which I learned my "merauke" is actually an Indo X Merauke) explained how to tell if a northern is a true northern and preserving the northerns within the US since they are losing their popularity to the Indo's, IJ's and Meraukes. I believe it was his wife, who video taped the whole thing but that will be up to him to pass that around if he wishes. :) It was a great opportunity to learn from him!

I brought my possible pregnant IJ to show him and he said he does think shes pregnant so we shall wait and see what happens!
Here are a few pics from last night.

I did talk to Andrew about the video, but he said it wasn't very good and didn't want to show it. He made an excuse about getting sick right before the presentation, :blah: :blah: :blah: ... I told him he is a whiner and a loser, but still didn't get the video out of him. I may try to get it again sometime, but no luck so far.
