Toasty

Two ocotillos
Dr. K was a bit under the weather this morning so it was Willow and me on the daily trek.

It was unpleasantly hot out there, and the breeze that rose intermittently didn't do much to assuage the heat.

We followed our usual route stopping often for shade breaks.  During our outing we spotted two runners on the long dirt road west of us.  Willow was particularly interested in the one who was wearing all white clothes.

The only ride we took after our hike was the one that got us straight back home.

Come out

Thank you
