Later we did a long hike on the lower Lucas Canyon Trail, a trek we'd never done before. It was gorgeous, and the weather was perfecto!

| I believe these are Penstemon Newmexicanus |
| Symbiosis |
| Cutleaf Coneflowers |
| Slyrocket (aka Scarlet Gilia) |
| New Mexico Thistle |
| A good place to eat trail mix |

Gorgeous pics!
Good to see you and Dr. K on lush green grass for a change!
From your stance on the pine, it looked like you had just defeated it in battle:)
Thanks, Ruby. This was a beautiful new trail for us.
Great photos! And it looks like a trail even I could do!
Beautiful set of pictures, Packrat. If I had to choose my favorite, I'd probably select the cut-leaf coneflowers with the evergreen background.
Thanks Ruby, Dr. K, Caroline and Scott for your comments. Much appreciated! I've been spending a lot of time trying to identify flowers, and I must say that I've been frustrated in my efforts.
