Awfully Cold Start

First 5:  Hot air ballooning in 23F weather
19F when we awoke this morning, 23F when we started our hike.  Surprised to see a hot air balloon out there early, but no wind allowed for safe ballooning, I guess.

There was a slight breeze at times, which contributed to the cold; nevertheless we did a full trek today.

Took a long ride after our outing, driving a little further away from normal stomping grounds to get a look at different neighborhoods.
