Scorpions...I haven't seen one in a month or so (knocking on my wood desk right now). Though another friend of mine just found one a week ago. They'restill around, just not that mobile.

Snakes...a coworker of mine missed a couple days recently. When he came back, he told me he had been in the hospital due to a rattlesnake bite. He was walkingin his yard at night and felt something strike his ankle. His first though was "oh no, this is gonna suck". He saw that it was indeed a rattler andhad his wife take him to the hospital. They couldn't find any trace of venom. Turns out it was a "dry" bite...I guess a rattler can tell ifyou're a threat/dinner or not...

I love the desert.

Can't wait to hear the stories from this trip! Can the penguin take the heat in the desert!?

Dang... Anyone else feel the pressure on me to make sure that Colin pulls at least one fish out of the water? I can hear the comments when he posts thepictures of a string full of bluegill

! What's the old saying,"Even the worst day fishing is better than the best day _____!" Let's hope so!

As for the penguin, I think we're probably having his early fall, late spring type weather. Highs in the upper 60's/low 70's with lows in the40's. Hope I don't have to jump into the water for anything!

Don't send him Cuervo or Patron (hack). If you're gonna drink tequila in AZ. pick up some Hacienda, Cantera, Toltec, Centenario or the every faithfulHornitos. For less money than Patron of nasty arse Cabo Waboe, these teqilas are far superior.

Funny how people go nuts over Patron, usually the silver. Stuff is like drinking terpentine...it's so overrated it's rediculous...
My current favorite is actually made by Cuervo, a Tequila Rod aka madhunter brought to the convention from Mexico called Traditional. Incredible sippingTequila.

Colin, I forgot to ship the package, and not it's too late...

maybenext time!

You'll have enough good times without that stuff anyways...

So far...U-N-B-E-L-I-E-V-A-B-L-E!!!!

Doug has the pics soon to follow.

Had an awesome steak dinner and conversed with a guy who sits on the board of the Minnesota Vikings.

Game time soon, looking for a big Cardinals win!

This trip has been much much better than anticipated.

I even let the 'big-one' get away!!
