Hot and Sunny

I think the temperature was up in the high 70’s today. It was a great day for kicking back and reading a book while watching the hummingbirds buzz each other at the feeder.

 

I went for my walk today and Meg stayed home and gave Brenda a hand around camp. Not sure what they did but she is not happy being a camp dog while I am out trekking through the desert. But one more day should get her over her footsoreness and maybe she can come back walking.

Mike and Janna were out walking too and rumour has it they have some shots of a couple of Desert Bighorns on their blog tonight. Here they are coming back from their own walkabout.

Brenda and Janna headed into Quartzsite for a little retail therapy this afternoon and from all reports the season is starting in the ‘Q’ and the desert over that way is filling rapidly.

Here is another fellow who buzzed by today.
