Mildly Off-Topic: Rodent Run to Maine
« on: March 20, 2010, 05:17:18 PM »
This is mildly off-topic. Some boring Rodent Run Photos, but I figured I'd share anyway. My good friend Rick Krumrine and I took a roadtip to Maine for "business" LoL, except not really. He is a snake breeder of venomous and non-venomous, but he distributes and sells frozen feeders as well. We goofed off and spent some time in Boston, Mass on the way up; ate in Hartford, Conn on the way back; and found some hole-in-the-wall bars in Bangor, Maine while there. The mission was a Rodent Run. You can see picks of one of the tri-monthly ones here:

Frank stayed home with his wife Mir to do a bunch of work on her car that she needed. She got to drive Rick's Corvette to work the couple days we were gone, while her car was out of commission.
:Rock:
These pictures aren't too fancy, but some of the stuff we saw on the way up and back. The end mile count was about 1400 miles.

Hartford:




Boston:

The mice are names Cheese & Crackers. They are naughty little mice and do vulgar things when they think no one is looking.


We ate at a place called "The Pour House" in Boston. This place pretty much rocked. I took a bunch of pictures of it.


Decorations at the Pour House and some Girls/Boys Room Graffiti that I thought was funny. These are just links for clutter purposes, and of course some are inappropriate, LoL. Apparently this place is pretty popular cuz there were shout-outs from crazy places on the walls like Arkansas and California. Just click below:

We ate at a place called the Wood-N-Tap in Hartford, Conn on Saint Patty's Day. AWESOME place to have a beer.



Where we got the rodents from was a Bird Sanctuary where a man captures and rehabilitates injured birds. Most are bird of prey, hence why he has thousands of Rodents lying around for spare. Red-Tailed Hawks:


Owls:



Loading up the Excursion with Rodents:



The morning we got home. Frank and Rick already packing Rodents. The count at the end was over twenty thousand.




And of course, just to show off Rick's Corvette:
Cheers!
