Hi from Panama City, FL!

Hey all, my name is Elisa. I have owned iguanas and a bearded dragon before. I had to give them up before joining the military. But I love lizards! I researched several different lizards including Savannah Monitors, Timor Monitors, Green Tree Monitors and decided on a Black & White Tegu. :-D I will be getting my baby Black & White Argentine next summer.

I was recently medically discharged from the Air Force. My husband has been in for 15 years. He is currently deployed to Afghanistan and made a deal with me. If I continue to workout while he is gone for 5 more months and continue working out after he gets home, we can get a baby Tegu when he gets home. This may sound kinda odd, but so far it's the best motivation for me to workout! Since I hurt my back, hip and knee while I was in the Air Force I have become out of shape due to limited mobility. If I workout, I will get back in shape and get a baby Tegu! :mrgreen:

I am originally from Kansas City, MO but currently live in Panama City stationed at Tyndall AFB, FL.

I already have a baby reserved with Varnyard for 2011. I live 10 minutes from and am friends with Bobby the owner of Varnyard. He's my Florida Dad. :)

Yes it is pretty awesome living so close to Bobby. I like to hold the babies when they wake up to eat. They are so cute! They will be hypernating soon so will have to wait till next year to handle them. But then I will have mine! :mrgreen:
