Before the Windstorm

This & next:  moon going behind clouds

Dr. K, Willow and I were very fortunate during our morning hike; we got only gentle breezes on our outing.  We did our regular route seeing both the Basset people and their hounds and Pickup Truck lady and her dog, but no close interactions.  Now, a bit before 3 p.m., the windstorm is raging.

This & next:  interesting clouds
