Chilly, but not Cold

1st 2:  American Kestrel
Dr. K and I both wore jackets this morning because it was 50F when we hit the trail.  We did our usual route with Frio and Willow, both of whom really enjoyed the trek because they were off lead for most of it.  They behaved fairly well during the outing.

We saw the black side-by-side descend LDR when we were on the outbound leg and ascend the long dirt road when we were inbound.  The driver and his dog never seem to spend much time exploring the desert; we saw them depart the vehicle and then return to it shortly afterward.
