Taking to the Trail III (c)
It was hot yesterday! Temps were perfect for sitting in my back yard with a book. Instead, I needed to walk at least ten miles with my pack on. I made eleven and a half (eight on the trail and then took the road back to the car rather than the much-more-winding trail). That at least allowed some of the very light breezes to get to me.


Despite the relatively calm day, the cottonwoods were extremely - pleasantly - noisy. The whole way, yellow leaves drifted out of the elms and the wild fruit trees. Fall is coming, and hopefully, somewhat cooler temperatures.
