Becca and I did a very long hike along the western rim of Tortugas Mountain, then dropped down into the lower desert on the outer loop road.  Two-thirds of the way through the trek we ran into the Chartreuse Goose, who called Becca "the best dog ever."  Don't know about that, but she appreciated the compliment.  It acted as a counterweight to Greg's calling her "Berta" yet again.  We bumped into him toward the end of our hike.  I think he hikes only on M-W-Fs.
