Today was better. It dawned ferociously bright, but with cold temps. We hiked out of the Genser trail head. These are my new hiking shoes. I think they make my feet look like potatoes. They're just like the old ones, except the old ones were cuter.
This is Jim talking to his friend Dave who lives in Seattle. We are at the top of the trail here, the traditional snacking place.
A fuzzy cholla.
I love the Sonoran desert. It's so beautiful out there. It's quiet.
This is my new hiking outfit. I have capri hiking pants. They're way more comfortable than long pants and they keep my knees warm. Yes, I know how they look with the potato shoes.
Behold the cholla pup. This thing managed to stick spines into my new hiking shoes, into the leather and the rubber soles. They are tenacious little buggers. Jim had to pry it off with his hiking pole.
This afternoon we bought a wonderful thing at Camping World. Our previous water pressure regulator only allowed 45 pounds. So, washing dishes or showering was done with a trickle of water. There was not enough pressure to sustain the sprayer in the kitchen sink. Today all of that changed, we bought a 50-55 pound regulator and now showers are vigorous, rinsing dishes is efficient and life is way better. I am a happy camper.
