Up in the Air

Contrails over Tortugas

I didn't mean to focus on airborne subjects this morning, it just turned out that way.  The weather was very pleasant for our early-morning hike today.  Becca and I took a moderately-long trek west of Tortugas Mountain.  We saw Mr. Tacoma's white Toyota truck parked over by the lineman school, but we never saw Mr. Tacoma.  In fact, we saw nobody in the outback during our walkabout.  We did see a bunch of critters, though, which is always a big plus when heading out into the natural world.
