Hey, Calgarians!
As part of the ongoing battle, I have a box coming from Jayson at SWC tomorrow for a 5:30 pickup at the airport. He has a bundle of snails available as well.

Empty tank - What should I do?
Do you have a quarantine tank? Could be good for that, if you don't.

In Calgary now, get together?
I'd be happy to have you over Des, if you're so inclined to make the trek northward. Bob's nearby but will be away, and EmilyB is tucked away in an impenetrable mountain vale, much like Rivendell. ...
