Another Hot One

Desert Marigold

Unlike during yesterday's hike Dr. K, Willow and I didn't have the benefit of clouds partially blocking the sun; oh there were clouds this morning, but not in the right location.  Therefore it felt a bit hotter out there for our daily trek.  We got through it okay thanks to Willow's constant stopping in shady spots.
