Could've Used a Breeze

1st 2:  arroyos near the Tellbrook

Rather brutal out there for Dr. K, Willow and me this morning; hazy, high humidity, relentless sunshine and only a puff of breeze when we first started off.  After five minutes it felt as if there was no air circulation at all.  Instead of our regular route we crossed the Tellbrook Arroyo heading north to explore side arroyos we've explored in the past.  Much too hazy to get any decent photos, though.  After the exploration we recrossed the Tellbrook and headed up the right branch arroyo, exiting over the steep hill to the west.  Even Willow seemed glad to have the hike over with today.

Between-arroyos breather for Willow

There are at least nine barrel cacti in this photo
