Becca and I got a little wet on our long trek in the Tortugas Mountain outback. It was quite cool on the trail, breezy with an overcast sky. The raindrops felt pretty chilly as they plunged out of a frigid sky. Fortunately, they didn't last. Had the rain fallen harder we would have been soaked because we were still more than a mile away from the car. It was a nice change of pace out there today. Oh, and we met Greg--a guy we see hiking the mountain fairly often.
