The otter got the rabies from another rabid animal. Maybe even from an ankle biting type dog.

If it were feasible for me to become a mountain bike vagabond, I’d do so.

Farmer tan
Went out on the mountain bike with my friend George this am on the Old Ridge Route. He wanted to just ride 3 hours, so we went out for 90 minutes then turned around, which covered maybe 75% of the road. I’ve posted about this one before, it’s an abandoned road that used to be the main highway from LA to Bakersfield. Some of it (in the populated areas) is normal paved road, some of it is gone. But the part up in the mountains is still there, sort-of maintained for fire and natural disaster purposes, in case emergency vehicles need to get through the Tejon Pass if the 5 freeway gets shut down.
Anyway, it’s a cool place to ride. Rarely do you encounter any other humanity (today we actually saw three people).
Thirty miles, 3000 ft climbing, beautiful terrain, awesome company, perfect weather, lively but not crushing pace. In short, a very fine morning.
Striking how my pic is golden, @Trsnrtr pic is green, @LesterOfPuppets pic is white.

Ninety-five degrees really isn't hot for a sun.
Just sayin'.
Apart from the zoo/aquarium, I don't recall encountering any otters.

Just because you can survive it doesn't mean your body is happy about it. You're not 25 anymore.

Yes, we all did such stuff, that's why God protects babies and utes . . . at least until their brain is fully developed. But after a while he gets tired of protecting adventurers.
