There are some good ideas coming out now!
I like Jason's idea of this being the first of many meetings/herping trips.
As Sid is keen to participate and he is familiar with the herping in the region, I vote for coastal North Carolina. There is an airport (New Bern) right on the coast. I have been checking out on-line flight prices from the UK (you guys would need to price up your own flights, but my findings will be a good indication), they seem to be around the £500- mark for a return flight to New Bern. Raleigh/Durham is considerably cheaper, but it would then be necessary to travel across the state.
Time-wise, how do we all feel about the spring of 2009? Or is that too soon?
Reed, thanks for mominating me as the researcher!
I think I will need a little help from the rest of you though!
