You may or may not recall last winter when I went AWOL for about 5 months. For many of you it may have been so traumatic that you have repressed the memory; this is entirely understandable.
In order to make sure that you are not forced to undergo such anguish again, I am reserving certain trip reports for the months of the year that actual herping trips are impossible for those of us who live this far north.
One trip that I am looking forward to posting about is a trip I took with the boys to the hill country of Hocking County, OH.
We herped for nearly two days solid, had several adventures, and found some interesting things.
Another reason I am putting this post off is the fact that I am doing some research into the geology of the northern portion of our continent, specifically the way what is called the Wisconsin glaciation affected WI and OH.
I hope these pics fulfill the dual purpose of satisfying your appetite for now and whetting it for later.
