Back at It

Rugged desert floor
Becca and I did a semi-long hike in the desert west of Tortugas Mountain this morning, and we saw only a few other outdoor enthusiasts.  It had rained a little bit before we left home, and meteorologists are saying we have a 50% chance of showers or thunderstorms later today; 60% chance tomorrow.  It felt pleasant on our trek even though it was a tad humid.  We need and want the precipitation, but we're hoping the weather gods will be kind to us.
