I think that's what Burt said we went.  Second day in a row with the Burt-meister.  We ran along the canal by his house.  Another good run with good company!  It was nice and easy compared to yesterday's run...

No pics today, but I did get to meet Mrs. Burt.  She's certainly a nice lady.  Especially because she has to put up with Burt (ha ha).

But seriously, Burt's not as creepy as his comments sometimes suggest :)

So that ends my tour of bloggers.  Maybe next time I come to AZ I can run with Bonnie!  Next time we'll go back home the extreme southern route and maybe I can meet Joe and his family too!

If you swing up through Utah and then take I-80 on the way home, you could catch a bunch more bloggers.

I'm assuming that Mrs. Burt is a saint.

Mrs. Burt has got to be one awesome lady! Man you are having a great time of travel and running! Jealous with a capital J!

Sounds like it was a successful trip, have a safe drive back. And of course, you'd be welcome anytime!

So I guess I want to meet Burt in real life someday. His wife has to be amazing, has to be! Im glad you had a good trip!

I'm going to show this to my wife, and she's going to cry.

From Tracy on Tue, Jun 28, 2011 at 18:36:45 from 173.24.38.54

Is she going to cry tears of joy? Now someone finally appreciates her saintliness?

Or sadness that I called her "Mrs. Burt"?

From Burt on Tue, Jun 28, 2011 at 18:40:55 from 206.19.214.144

You can call her Victoria if you want. I do like the sound of Mrs. Burt.
