Picnic

At home in High Rolls
Foregoing a morning hike for a picnic turned out to be a sterling idea--except it was a little chilly at Sunspot (elevation 9,200 feet).  Becca, however, would have preferred a long mountain trek.  Returning to High Rolls we drove through three or four hail storms/thunderstorms that gave us pause.  It was raining pretty hard in High Rolls, too, forcing us to sit in the car for a bit before going inside the house.  A swell time was had by all.

It was great to have a picnic with Mae.

I'll bet it's great to get out of the desert for a while and up at higher elevations.
