Chilly/Hot Hike

Dynamic clouds early
The weather seemed really odd this morning.  When I first took Becca out to do her business at home I donned a windbreaker, but felt warm from high humidity.  By the time we left for our hike the wind had picked up, the sky was slightly overcast, and it felt quite chilly.  So I wore my windbreaker for about half the hike.  Had to take it off then to avoid overheating.  Hiked the rest of the way in shorts and short-sleeved shirt.  We're heading for a high of about 85 F., pretty toasty for this time of year.
