Change Up

1st 3:  morning sky
Even though it was 82F when Dr. K, Willow, Frio and I started our hike this morning the big break came in the form of clouds that kept the sun from pounding down on us.  A breeze of any kind would have made conditions much more bearable, but you can't have everything.

We followed our normal route today stopping several times for water and a brief respite.  The times when the sun did make an appearance we wished it hadn't; the temperature felt like it went up at least ten degrees under old Sol.

The forecast is calling for a chance of rain over the next few days; let's see how accurate that prediction is.
