Again With the Road Work

This & the next:  Littleleaf Ratany

Willow, Frio and I trekked up to First Arroyo, popped in for a drink and a brief respite, and then headed back.  We saw no other outdoor enthusiasts either going or coming.

The ride back wasn't too frightful, although the flagman on the high part of the hill had us drive in the opposite lane for nearly half a mile before we could get back into the proper lane.


Mush!
