Hello all! First off my REAL name is Glen Chapman,some of may have seen that I post under the name of Dallas Glen,well,let me explain before I get blown outta the water! I use that as a pen name for 1) I am in the process of writing a book for younger folks on the Herps of the Arkansas Ozarks and 2) from time to time I write an article in our local newspaper that gets a lot od negative response from certain Elected and Appointed Officials in our city.The reason I do that for the paper is because it could have a real negative effect on my position with our Fire Dept,where I am currently the Leutinant/Fire Marshal.Sorry if I have confused anyone.or caused them any ill-will towrds me.But the reason I originally posted under that name is because I have this funny little phobia about my personal Info on the Web.But in the few months that I have been here I have gotten to know a few of you and have come to trust this site.The best thing going IMHO.
Now..about me.Ya know my name(all of 'em)!!!I live in the Ozarks..in Arkansas. Husband for 9 years,3 children Oldest son is 7,daughter 4,youngest son 3 months.I currently work at Ranger Boats,where I spend 8 hours a day in the most uncomfortable conditions imaginable,but the money is great!!.I am pretty new to herping and try to soak up knowledge like a sponge,especially when it comes to Boids.I currently keep some rat snakes(differant species) Kingsnakes(Speckled and Praire),and an Eastern Hognose.Also 3 bredding pair of three toed Box turtles,and 1 African Spurred tortiose.
My hobbies include hunting(more to watch than to kill nowadays),flyfishing(perfect place for it!!) doing the Fire/Rescue thing,speding time with my kids and animals,and teaching my scouts( am an asst. Den leader in our Cub Scout troop) what I can about nature,safety and comservation.h and herping!!
