VPW (Very Pleasant Weather)

Last night's clouds

When Becca and I left the house early this morning the air had a distinct nip to it.  Haven't felt that kind of chill since early spring.  It made for a wonderfully pleasant hike.  We ran into a guy named Raymond, who we see quite often, and he told me that on Monday he had been run down by a woman mountain biker who carelessly failed to avoid him on a section of trail.  Raymond suffered several cuts on his arms.  He showed them to me while mentioning what cuss words he'd use if he ever saw that biker again.

Returning from a bathroom break

Trail down from the high foothills

Becca often spots things I never see

Horned Lizard (look closely to see its horns)

If I stay behind this bush maybe it won't see me

I can't catch a Jackrabbit even if I could sneak up on it

Old Curved Bill (Curve-billed Thrasher)

Serpent print, probably from a rattler
