Two years ago today, I made my first log entry!!

Temps in the mid 40's to start and upper 50's at end.  Sunny and windy.

Trails were damp which surprised me; we've have no real rain for awhile.  Very pleasant otherwise, no animals but quite a few birds.  The park's longhorns were near the Armadillo Ridge area and on the trails but they left me alone.  All in all, a nice day to hike !
