We were walking back to the vehicles at the end of a day's herping, when I casually mentioned to Carl Koch that I had yet to find a Blue-Spot.  "You're kidding!  I know a spot for them, I'll get you one".  Carl took off a ahead of us, and by the time we had reached our cars, he had one for me, finding it nearby in a patch of woods.  I took this photo as the day faded to black.  Thanks Carl, you really delivered!
