Midweek Jaunt

Bug on lens

Because it's provision day here at the Chihuahuan Observation Center we had to shorten our hike somewhat.  It was 60 degrees Farenheit when we started out, with a gentle breeze.  Felt pretty good--a harbinger of Fall.  Except for us two intrepid hikers there wasn't another soul in the outback.  As we like it.
