Change of Weather

Ready to rock and roll
It rained on and off all during the night, and conditions looked very iffy this morning; we weren't sure we could squeeze in a hike.  But we were lucky.  The weather cooperated as Becca and I did a very long hike in the cool desert air.  We even ended up bushwhacking again even though we hadn't planned on it.  However, after a rain the desert has a unique fragrance all of its own, and we wanted to get intimate with it.
