On the foothills trail |
A mid-week hike in the outback always serves as a reminder about how important the natural world is. When the spirit is vexed from dealing with mundane reality, a good long trek relaxes body and mind. It was hot again today, but an obliging breeze kept the temperature out of the scorching range. Becca, as you can see, takes a break in the shade whenever the spirit moves her.

I love the heat but wish we didn't have to watch out for snakes.
