Cloudy Start

Overcast skies
Although the skies were completely cloudy when we headed out this morning, the temperature was not very cold.  The dew point was elevated, though, and we're expecting rain later this afternoon.  We did a long hike into the outback, and on the return leg we were fortunate enough to run into J.C. and his dog, Shaque.  Shaque is an old-timer--fourteen--but a real trooper.  Despite some recent health problems he still gets out to do a hike every day with J.C.

It's Shaque

Shaque is 14, but still playing with sticks
