Turkey Eve

1st 3:  Soaptree Yucca and the Organ Mountains
We started off about 8 today on a significantly colder morning:  hat, earband, gloves kind of weather.  Fortunately the breeze came up gently only a few times during our outing.

Did the usual route in regulation time, though we did take several long breaks along the way.  We saw no one else in our section of northern Chihuahuan Desert, unless you count the Curve-billed Thrasher we encountered in Middle Branch Arroyo--which I do.

After returning home, showering and dressing in presentable clothing Dr. K and I headed over to Walgreens to be vaccinated yet again; this time another Covid booster for her, and for me a Prevnar 20 pneumonia shot.
