Running Errands

Well on our way to the upper foothills

Because Tuesday is my errand day I cut our hike a bit short this morning.  However, it was long enough for Becca to consider it a 3-BM trek.  Unfortunately we weren't out there long enough to encounter any desert denizens even though we saw a few birds in the distance.  We didn't run into any humans, either, but there were a good number of vehicles parked at the Sunset Area when we finished up.
