Aww man, I'm at a friends house so can't really do anything, we were going outside to shoot some baskets. I guess I'll just have to "lose the ball in his lawn" and have to go looking. :lol:

A ny ant together would be too big for this year. Maybe a, “Blacklight together”?

Looks like brachymyrmex falling from the sky tonight. Check on top of lighter colored vehicles to find them mating.

How is Poughkeepsie for an Ant Together location for next year? Are others willing to drive that far/ near by?

Bump.

The get together still a plan for this year? I figure we should start hashing out details sooner rather than later, so those of us that need time off of work can request it and we can get a rough head count. Does anyone know a good spot in Poughkeepsie? That was the only location discussed so far, but I am open to other ideas if more people chime in. I am hoping to find either a Camponotus castaneus or Colobopsis impressa, so if anyone knows a good spot let me know.
