Holiday Weekend

My favorite Parry's Agave

Owing to the holiday weekend, I guess, it was somewhat more crowded on the west side of Tortugas Mountain this morning.  We encountered five or six different hikers and runners where we usually just bump into one or two at most.  Can't blame people for getting out to enjoy nature on such a beautiful day; I do wish, though, that they'd find their own outdoor play area and stay off the one that belongs to Becca and me. :)

Bumblebees love Parry's Agave, too
