Long, Fast Bushwhack

1st 3:  Tortugas and the Organs

Willow and I did a long bushwhack this morning, heading across the desert to an area where Becca and I used to hike a lot.  I'd taken Willow and Frio to this place several times as well.

Willow had a great time; she was off lead all the way there and back.  I took far too many photos today, none particularly noteworthy.

We had fun on a chilly morning in the northern Chihuahuan Desert, arriving home just before Dr. K had to leave for a Saturday morning meeting of the AAUW.
