Collar of Shame

Haley was doing a convention this week and staying in a hotel in Salt Lake. Eric started shadowing a Physician's Assistant. Krystal seems do be enjoying her work. Gordon is working nights to cover some testing for his work. Alison and John are in Houston visiting Alison's mom while Gordon works nights.

Felicia got an estimate for removing the pepper trees. The roots are getting invasive. It was $3000. I guess we'll wait a little more.

The dogs are having minor issues. Kirby seems to have a sore leg and Christie is obsessed with chewing the fur off one toe. We got a cone for her.

Saturday I trimmed trees all day. I had Friday off this week and Russ Pearson and I planned a to scout the Mammoth-to-Globe section of the AZBDR. Russ had just acquired a 2005 BMW R1200GS two weeks prior. I was impressed how well he did on it. Unfortunately, he broke his rear brake pedal. Apparently he hit a rock or rut somewhere during the rutted section.

Here is a photo of when he sunk in the deep sand crossing the San Pedro.

Here is the ride report.
