Saturday Shuffle

Tortugas Mountain and the Organ Mountains
Very windy at our place this morning so we prepared to be cold in the desert during our hike.  Surprisingly the wind was nonexistent on our trek; I had to remove gloves and earband because they were unnecessary.

We heard dogs barking out there, but didn't notice the Basset people until we had nearly finished our trek; they were headed west down the Tellbrook Arroyo.

I keep hoping to see our coyote buddy, but we haven't spotted him for quite a while now.
