I know they're called "teddy bear" cholla's but you really need to refrain from hugging them. Actually from the story that was with the e-mail it seems she fell off her quad into one. can you say OUCH!!!!

That made my eyes water. I hope they morphed her up real good. I've had just one of those pressed into my leg and it ruined my hike in the Sonoran. I sat on a rock with my Leatherman for 30-45 mins pulling needles from my calf. Chollas are EVIL :twisted:

people this is why we all need to wear eye protection when we go out to cactus country.

I sure hope this young lady had hers on.

Man that had to hurt .

Avoid driving on the side of the road where the snow is extra deep... That was on the lower elevation of Lovell Summit Rd here in Las Vegas. There was supposed to be 21" of snow at the higher elevations that day.

I am sure you have. Any chance they will let you mount an HD camcorder on that plow truck of yours? I bet you could make some really awesome winter videos every year.

Day shift probably gets the best sights, like the trooper pushing cars off the road with his Expedition last winter because they were parking in the middle of the road to go play on the snow hills.

Working nights, I mostly get to deal with drunks leaving the lodge late. It's kind of fun blowing by them at 35 MPH pushing a wall of snow :lol:
