More Spring Flowers

Leafed-out ocotillo with blossoms

Dr. K, Willow and I did our usual trek in the arroyos south of the Tellbrook Arroyo.  We saw Mr. Basset and his hounds as well as the Pickup-Truck-Lady and her dog; they were hiking with a companion human and lead dog.  It was 60F when we started off, and it felt pleasantly warm for the duration.  Dr. K and I are suffering from pollen-related allergies--not surprising due to the abundant wildflowers blooming in our section of northern Chihuahuan Desert.
