I met these guys Friday morning along the Arizona Canal Bike Path in Phoenix. They were off their bicycles investigating a bicycle frame chained to a fence. They said the night before the entire bicycle was there and that they warned a friend not to leave it over night. The bicycle was stripped clean. As we talked I asked them if they lived in Phoenix. The middle gentleman responded "We live all over Phoenix...Mostly under bridges". The 3 men laughed. I replied with "So, you guys are homeless?" The middle gentleman said with a grin with the other 2 men laughing, "No, I said we live under bridges". I laughed with them, wished them a good day, and was on my way.
