    Well, it seems I can't seem to get to Kevin's store without taking some pics of his 600 gallon display tank. These are a few that I took when I was over there this weekend. Hope you enjoy........................I did!!!!

    Mike, that pic and a couple of top down shots were as close as I got. I knew you would get to this if I took a pic of his tort. I cannot believe how much that thing has grown just since November.

    LOL!!!! I think you took that picture just to torment me! ;)

    That piece is a show stopper for sure. If things keep going to crap here in GM land, I am moving to to the Pacific NW, just to be closer to that Tort!

    Robert...................... I would wait a while if I were you. That is a tough one for me to grow.


    Mike, the answer is yes. I told Kevin when I was taking the pics, that if you saw this, you would go nuts.
    If you ever did move out here, this whole area would never be the same.

    See I KNEW IT!!!!!

    LOL!

    I have been looking all over the place lately Charlie, fact is Michigan depends on the Auto industry almost 100%, when Chrysler files for bankruptcy, it will be only a matter of time before GM does... That will change everything!

    Things are getting REALLY tough in Flint now, yesterday a gas station was robbed, and then FIREBOMBED!!!! I know crime is everywhere, but I mean COME ON!!!!

    No worries man, you gotta vent somewhere!!!!!

    I am not saying it is any better out here, but I don't think it is that bad here. Certainly no good for the kids growing up there.

    Yeah, I knew I could get someone's goat with that pic.

    Charlie and Mike,

    Try Jacksonville, even before the econ. went south, it was bad, it's getting worse,and I've got 13 and 10 year old daughters, Thats why I mentioned back when I first met you here Charlie about heading back out to Idaho, still got that Iron in the fire, and it gets hotter everyday.

    Anyway, I know I could never have that absolutely beautiful, drop dead, sell the kids and wife type coral in my tank, even if it was ready, it's not big enough. One day I will.

    Tanks,
    Robert

    Hey Charlie, What did you bring home? I'm guessing none of the "blue Tort." I received your message Sunday night. The cell phones must have gotten lost over the pass.

    I hope to get pics up in my 300 thread either tonight or tomorrow, you'll see.
    I already have 2 torts from Dang, so no, I didn't bring any of that home.
