A Little Rain

Clouds above the ridgeline

We got a bit of rain late last night and the humidity was still quite high when Dr. K, Willow and I did our morning hike.  We saw other outdoor enthusiasts in the desert:  Basset People and their hounds, Two-White-Dogs-Lady, her dogs and a hiking companion.  After we got home I left for my weekly shopping stint at Albertsons, the duration of which was about an hour; I like to get in and out as quickly as possible.
