Hot and Cold

We've reached the time of year where the morning and afternoon temperatures vary widely.  When Becca and I set off early today it was 53 degrees Fahrenheit.  We're headed for the mid-80s this afternoon.  So you start off wearing a jacket, which you end up removing pretty quickly because the strength of the desert sun demands it.  By the time you get back to your car you've already been sweating for a quarter-mile.  I look forward to the upcoming days when I can wear a jacket for the entire hike.  My kind of weather.
