Bit of Cloud, Bit of Breeze

Ocotillos and clouds
Dr. K, Willow, Frio and I did our regular hike on what began as a pretty brutal morning.  The humidity seemed a bit higher and there was no breeze to speak of.

Midway through the hike the sun hid behind a wispy cloud, the breeze picked up and the temperature dropped by what seemed like ten degrees.  A bit of cloud and a bit of breeze was all we needed to make the last half of the trek bearable.

We were more than happy, though, to end the hike today.
