Century Sentry

This & next:  hills alongside LDR-A
Hot and humid on our outing this morning, but a nice breeze blew on-and-off for a while.  Fortunately we weren't out there too long on our normal trek.

Dr. K, Willow, Frio and I took a few shade breaks along the way, but not many.  We were glad to get back to the CR-V after the hike.

We drove over to our local Circle K on the way home to fill up:  $28.60 for a little over half a tank.  I've been topping off whenever I reach the half-tank mark to avoid shock.
