    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Going to Asheville, NC for 2 weeks...

LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO GO AND SEE ANYTHING UP THERE...I have been going there for many years but i have never seen timbers in the wild...i would love to go to a reliable place to see them.
 
Hi Michael, unfortunately Timbers are very hard to come by up here. In fact, the only real common snake is the black rat. There is however, a load of salamanders and other amphibians. There are also a few copperheads and a good number of garter snakes, but nothing to get really excited about. I am not saying you will not find a Timber, but I would be very surprised.

I would love to get pics of some timbers in the wild! The only rattler I have seen in NC was an EDR that was DOR in Sneeds Fery, NC just out side of Camp Lejeune, Marine Corps base and that was in 96'. Holycow, that was ten years ago. I getting old.... Better hurry Josh, I don't know how long my legs will hold out!lol Thanks, Blue
