The Recluse

the monster revealed

so i have been running and mountain biking the trails out in az now for about three years. Since i moved here i have wanted to see a Gila monster. they are a beautiful lizard that is has highly toxic saliva. for the past three years this amazing lizard has elluded my everwatchful eye. on easter sunday, Lusana and I went mountian biking in the white tank mountains, and at last the monster revealed itself to me. while carrying my big a** bike up the mountain I stumbled upon a basking gila monster. i wanted to take a pic, but alas i lost my camera. I have included a picture of the native beast for those of you who care to see the beauty of this reptile. I have also included a pic of an even more beatiful sight, my downhill Brodie mountain bike, the Recluse. enjoy!

does this work

well this i s my first post, so bear with me. I am a bit technologically challenged. I didn't even get a cell phone till a few years ago. I will try to add some pics as i go, but i recently lost my digital camera so they may be slow in coming. I don't have any cute stories of childhood whims like casey, but i figured i could give some updates. i am starting my psychiatry rotation on monday, so i might get some good stories from the crazies pretty soon.
