Well some awesome pics and stuff to share with you guys!

I will start off with some more pics of my snake Meerah, and my NEW snake (yet to be named.. because I don't know a gender yet).

Meerah is a Normal Ball Python, 3 years old & Female:


















This is my new snake, an Aberrant Albino King Snake. He is a baby still. Well I use "he" loosely because I'm not sure what gender it is yet. It's not "people tame" yet but that will come with handling. So I expect to have 100+ snake bites this year by the time he is tamed. But he is teeny tiny so they won't hurt, and he isn't poisonous. He is 2 feet long, but will get to be about 6ft long.









I gave Tonka a bath last weekend, so hes looking pretty good, well not anymore since it has been monsoon season here LOL









This past weekend we had 5 tornadoes touch down in Colorado. All in the Denver area. We actually had one touch down & damage alot of stuff within about 5 miles from our house. Luckily we just had some hail & wind at the house. Darryl & I were actually in the mountains when it happened so didn't experience it. But I bet the dogs were flipping out.





These are the pictures from our drive through the mountains on Sunday... We went over Hoosier Pass all the way to Mosquito Pass (Highest Mountain Pass in Colorado, non paved 4x4 access only). Couldn't make it all the way over due to snow but some beautiful pictures none the less :D

















































Hope you enjoy the pictures and updates :)

Oh and Happy B-Day again Dad :) (Even though it is belated this time).

I decided it was time to paint my wheels. They were originally polished aluminum, and through the 3 years they have been on my truck.. They have seen alot of stuff, including road salt, mud, rocks, etc. So they were VERY dull and VERY pitted.

I started out with a somewhat clean FJ Cruiser:








And a hard wroking Darryl:


Ugly Wheels Up Close:




Wheels after a good cleaning & scrub pad:


Tape off the tire so you don't get too much paint on them:


A wet, painted wheel:


Let the wheel dry, and then put it on the FJ:


Repeat to the next wheel:


Other side of the truck... WHile I was doing this job, I also cleaned and painted the underbody of the truck... there was a TON of mud inside my frame that I finally washed out, and some rust and scratches and paint chips..:
