Outback with Wils

Long, sunny view of Tortugas and the Organs

Dr. K was feeling under the weather so it was just me and Willow on the morning trek.  We pretty much bushwhacked into the same general area as yesterday in order to find plants with flowers more fully opened; but, disappointingly, the blossoms were less unfurled.  No matter, we still enjoyed the hike immensely, especially Willow who was off-lead for at least half of the outing.
