Awesome! I was hoping one of the local shops would have a special. I didn't see anything.

I will give my tang an extra helping of bloodworms today to celebrate!

I get mine from AT, it's the frozen cubes.

The pet shop in our neck of the woods has had then.

AT = Aquatouch

I alternate between the marine blend and the bloodworms, one cube daily. Been doing it that way for 3 years. Fish love it.

I celebrated the day by going to the Grand Canyon and hiking down to the Colorado and then hiking back up to the Rim. It was a great day.

We "rescued" a woman who had collapsed on the trail from dehydration. She was unresponsive when we arrived. 40 minutes later she could talk but not move. If you go into the canyon be sure you drink a ton of water and include electrolytes. I went through about 8 or 9 liters Saturday.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

^^ Like those idiots every summer that go out looking for the Lost Dutchman's gold with only a liter of water, kind of like going out in the snowy mountains with a sweater...

That's why we have the "stupid motorist law". At least recoup some money from the water rescues.
