Forecast is partly cloudy and high 70's. Could be one of the cooler August shows at Hamburg.

Phil,
I think we all miss your reviews. There was a decent crowd there.
I arrived a little after 8 and the line was at the end of the cemetery wall already.
Doors open at 9:30.
It rained all morning and most people had no umbrellas so the die hards were out in force.
Special thanks to Walt and Hank for helping me out and giving me a bathroom break.
There were 3 Dart frog only vendors there. Myself, Kieth Tannis and Tim Heath.
Pat from Allentown had some dart frogs but mainly geckos.
Mike Shrom had springtails and isopods as well as newts, salamanders and axolotls.
There were a few others selling darts also.
Quite a few people came by several times to kick the tires before eventually deciding to buy.
I handed out the last of the Dart Den business cards you left on my table the last time you and Craig were there.
Almost everyone walked out of the show with something in their hands.
My funny story is about the girl who was looking for Zimmerman's frogs.
She told me they were dart frogs from Peru. I named every frog I could think of from Peru.
I honestly didn't know she was talking about Variablis. I had to Google it on my phone.
She got really pissed, cursed me out and stormed off.

Good stuff Rick,
I'm gonna take a guess at this one. The girl was a newb and could not pronounce Var-ee-ahb-lis...hence the 'Zimmerman'.
Very funny - the cursing. I miss the people watching. See you in Sept in Staten Island.
