I’m glad you’re finding the train good for commuting. I used to take the Metro or El in Chicago to some jobs I had there.

Don’t be too sure about those Eskimos. If you think I’m nuts, check out Up In Alaska or MnBicycleCommuter! Both have very cool stories and inspiring rides.

Van: that's classic.
Tom: Thanks - I'm hoping it's a better year for sightings this year. And to think: 3 years ago I was making fun of my buddy Joe regarding butterfly watching...
Michael: Odonata are dragonflies and damselflies. They can be really tough to ID, but that's part of the fun- the challenge of identification.

Geez man, that’s a lot of freaking bugs! Just giving you a hard time, it really is amazing how many different species you’ve seen of birds, butterflies, and odonata … whatever those are. These lists make my head spin — I have no idea how you can tell them apart. They all look the same to me (not *exactly* the same, but so very close).

You did much better with dragonflies and butterflies than I did this year! Hmm, I should have kept track of my dragonflies this year!
