For several nights now he sounded as if he was suffocating, and the ragged, rapid and shallow breathing had carried over into mornings. I don't think we'll ever get over losing this very special friend. Hope there's an afterlife so we may all reunite.</p><p>At about 10:30, even though the wind was blowing hard and gusting badly we took Willow out on our regular route, though we truncated the trek by half. We're monitoring her to see what effects Frio's absence has on her behavior.<br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em;

It did cloud up a bit toward the end of our trek, but not enough to cause consternation.<p></p><p>As soon as we exited the CR-V at the start, though, we had to alter route to avoid the Basset people and their hounds who were approaching us on the upper flatland road. Therefore we headed south toward Tellbrook before bushwhacking eastward across a few steep hills and deep valleys.</p><p>We ended up descending into the right branch arroyo from its mouth, descending it to the junction with the left, ascending the left, heading down the middle and then ascending the right branch the opposite way we came down. A bit of a more strenuous hike, but worth the effort.<br /></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6Kyx41G00JPadI24CSUnbn7qQDn6vkvZJ_-3OW28rAGHQB8rFXN7_hn80tU8Tjb0d4hu9UKIXxjReJcpdiX7DtMjh68XbL_grFP5V19Hb5ZSf9fROv7WWPW_lCqtmKzSv9hfdihQrFULeb-5U4PQtOrBbB3l8FogECGCpcS3Of8iAgpBdRHJ71JIk8nVC/s5184/After%20Yesterday's%20Bad%20Wind%20002.JPG" style="margin-left: auto;

he was noticeably slower today. Vet put him on Terbinafine (another antifungal medication) to see if it, in combination with Itraconazole, will have a synergistic, broad-spectrum result. We're praying for a miracle.</p><p>On the drive to the trailhead we saw the Basset people and their hounds on the road south of Tellbrook, and they appeared to be crossing over to either LDR or LDR-A, but we never spotted them again.</p><p>The weather was warm and quite comfortable, but the wind is supposed to become strong later today; weather forecast called for blowing dust.

Fortunately the sun shone brightly and there wasn't much of a breeze. We saw the Basset people and their hounds when we were driving up Tellbrook, and we saw them again when we were ascending the right branch arroyo and they were headed down LDR-A.</p><p>After our trek we drove over to the Circle K to fuel up the CR-V, and we took a short drive afterward. Heading down University we decided to make a detour to McDonald's to buy a couple of Egg McMuffins and two small coffees. I had a bit of sticker shock when we saw the price: $!2.00. The Egg McMuffins were $4.50 each! Granted we hadn't been to Micky D's in about six years, but I was really surprised by the price rise.<br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

After much exploration we retraced our steps and finished up by ascending the right branch arroyo and climbing the steep hill to the west to where the CR-V was parked on the upper flatland road.</p><p>It was a very good outing today.<br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

We were thrown a curve ball when we had to alter our route just as we were beginning to descend the middle branch arroyo: the Basset people and their hounds were heading down the eastern ridge toward the Tellbrook Arroyo and they would have been spotted by the "O"s.<p></p><p>Therefore we bushwhacked out of the middle branch toward the west, eventually descending the right branch arroyo and beginning our hike all over again when we reached the junction with the left branch.

Dr. K, Willow, Frio and I left the left branch arroyo well below the ancient yucca and headed east toward the Organs.</p><p>We bypassed the hill we often climb to the north and struck into the desert to the east of it. After hiking well beyond the huge old yucca we circled back to it before heading to the saddle just south of the hill.</p><p>Heading north we climbed the hill, spotted the ancient yucca, descended the hill and looped back to the left branch arroyo exactly at the place where the ancient yucca stands.</p><p>From there we finished our usual hike, and everybody involved was happy with our excursion.<br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;
