So as I sit here waiting for my delayed flight home to Denver, I thought, what a perfect time to add my last set of pic updates for my trip to Austin! At the same time, I hope that the coral, leopard wrasse, snails, and donut holes (thats right, donut holes. I am a fat kid after all!) are all situated someplace out of the sweltering heat and humidity that is holding the city in its grasp. It rained all day yesterday and is like 80+ degrees today, which makes it a nice sticky sauna outside. Hope all the critters are ok!

Keeping it Weird!
Well Oklahoma was just that, OK. I ended up finishing my run a day early, so I bummed around OKC last friday before catching my flight home.

OK week...
Oklahoma that is! Back in Oklahoma city this week. Flew in this afternoon, hit one shop, found out another was closed and stopped by one of my distributors in the area. Quality Pets is a dry goods and livestock wholesaler based out of Oklahoma City, that distributes their product to OK, KS, AR, TX, LA, and NM, which is pretty crazy. They are modeled after the big livestock distributors in Los Angeles, and have a very clean livestock floor.

Fun at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium!
So on Wednesday, I spent most of the day in Fort Worth visiting shops, and then at 6, had to head to the new Dallas Cowboys stadium to set up our booth at the Central Pet Dallas Open House. It was awesome and took like 15 minutes, where other people were setting up shelving and gondolas, etc, and trying to fit pallets of product around their booths. I feel bad for the dog food peeps! Here's a pic of the Seachem booth:

Long Awaited return....and with coral!
Ok well not really. I did score some sweet corals on my trip to Dallas last week. Ill have to snap a pic of the stuff when I get a sec. I scored a 6" colony of Spongebob Favia, a HUGE green with red eyes chalice colony, from Dallas North Aquarium and some badass lunar eclipse palys that were similar to some that I named the mexican red-knee tarantula spiders back in the days of Dons.
