living in the desert

i was surprised that in a place so dry and barren, life found a way to survive. also, when something dies in the desert, its skeleton decomposes very slowly, so you end up with these skeletons of plants and animals scattered among the the living.

the reason i went to the desert is to hang out with my friend brent at his family's house in scotsdale, AZ. many people do not know this, but brent has been riding motorcycles and dirtbikes since he was a tyke. but for me, it was the first time. obviously that is brent in the picture. i didn't manage any tricks, but i did fall off the bike a few times.

we had some great drives and some great conversations out on the highways in the desert. if you ever get a chance to hang with brent in AZ, go for it! you will not regret it.

just a scratch.
