MMM mmm Desert goodness!



Arizona in spring. 'Tis green and verdelicious out here. We had a coupla good demos and then went out for some product testing/appreciation sessions.





















OoooOooo, new bike.







Almost lost the dog last night. We came out of dinner and I let Grendel out of the back of the truck for a little run around and he sniffled around and headed for an empty lot. I heard a funny whuffing noise and looked up and he was in a nose to nose Mexican standoff with a pack of 5 javelinas. All six animals were standing absolutely still and growling or whuffing. I hollered at him and Grendel turned tail and went right back into the truck. It is good to have a good dog. Them ginsu pigs would have dismantled him in an almighty hurry. There wouldn't have been enough of him left to carbon 14 date.

Yeah, yeah, yeah... Nice as always. I'm heading down to AZ this weekend. I'm sure I will return to some nice photos from Moab that you will no doubt take? There is still snow in Moab, but it should make for some dramatic scenery.

Lucky dog, good thing it's well-trained.

Great stuff as always.

And like many. I'm awful jealous of all that dry, snow free riding

That brings back great memories of an excellent trip - much greener than we were there. The evening shots in the second set are fabulous.

The guy in the second photo look like it might beTommy (AKA Salty Dog) who was one of the locals I rode with when we were in Phoenix - how did he like the Yeti?
