Beautiful morning to ride to work.  Nice and overcast.  Bit of a headwind when I turned west, but that helps to cool me down.

Nice to change things up a bit. Have you ever done a Tri?

From Burt on Fri, Jun 05, 2009 at 22:08:26 from 98.167.151.26

I've done two tris and one duathlon. I prefer the duathlons because I stink at swimming.

Hey Burt! I did not get a chance to finish my blog yesterday! Dean kicked me off the computer in the morning, and then I just got busy with work ... but, I did not actually exaggerate with the bunnies, I guess Tucsonian bunnies are a more prolific than Phoenix bunnies - because we are cooler and more laid back !!!

Nice bike ride!

All the bunnies I see around here are cotton tails. Up in Kingman I see a few cotton tails, but mostly jack rabbits. Whatever happened to AZDesertMonsoon? He knows about all wildlife species around here.

From Bonnie on Sat, Jun 06, 2009 at 14:50:49 from 128.196.228.134

I see mainly cotton tails near the washes and then jackrabbits a little higher up in elevation (3,000 or more). But lizards EVERYWHERE ... even though my cat seems bound and determined to reduce their size ...

Good to mix up your training Burt.
