A favorite sandy spot |
It was fairly crowded on and about the mountain, but I didn't see anybody in the outback and only ran into a single woman hiker on my way back in. I encounter her every once in a while; she hikes alone and likes to get out into the outback away from the crowds.
Drove down to the small post office to mail a bill before I headed home and to see the extent of the construction that will be ongoing for the next 18 months at I-25 and University Avenue. Once the college and Centennial High School are in session again the traffic congestion on University will be a nightmare.

I like that photo of the Loggerhead Shrike, especially with the bright blue background of the sky.
