Tolerable Temps

Prickly Pear cactus in the left branch arroyo
58F when Dr. K, Willow and I started our hike this morning; and while it warmed fairly rapidly it never really felt hot.

We did our usual route, seeing a few Black-tailed Jackrabbits along the way.  They were never close enough for me to get a decent photo of them, though.

Willow had a great time on our trek, stopping as often as she desired.  Sometimes I think she stops so often because she wants to extend the amount of time we spend out in the desert.
