Comes the Wind

Becca and I got in a long hike before the wind began to pick up.  Our area is under a high wind warning for this afternoon into the evening.  I think it's going to get downright nasty out there. We ran into JC and Shaque on our return, and we hiked a little extra with them.  Shaque, who's 15 years 8 months old, was in fine form, finding a stick to fetch and playing with it most of the way back to the parking area.  What a trooper that guy is.
