In the Race
Now, here, you see, it takes all the blogging I can do to keep in the same place.
If I want to get somewhere else, I must blog twice as fast as that!
You see, I'm in
the Red Queen's Race...

Talk about getting back to nature! If you go golfing in the Denver area, be prepared for just about any type of local wildlife to grace you with its presence. Worrisome enough would have been watching out of the corner of your eye for a mountain lion to come charging out of the woods. Now golfers in Colorado need to be on the alert for black bears.
"Although tournament officials were prepared to tranquilize the animal and stop play were it to become aggressive or spooked, after several minutes the bear crawled through a drainage pipe on the ninth hole that leads to the West Course, then went through another drainage pipe and into the wilderness, leaving unnerved galleries and golfers behind.USGA spokesman Pete Kowalski said wildlife experts were called in and would be on the course throughout the rest of the tournament in case the bear or its chums decide to return for another look around."
