Beating the Wind

A narrow trail through the desert

We took a very short hike this morning because Becca's leg appears to be bothering her again.  We're monitoring her movements carefully.  We got a chance to say hello to Greg as he was starting off early this morning to avoid the coming windstorm.  We did half of our hike with Shaque and J.C., the second leg back to the parking area.  J.C. and I talked for awhile, then decided it was best to mosey on out of there because the wind had started to pick up.  It's blowing hard as of this writing.
