A few more from Saturday.
Rain threatened most of the day, and the last few hours were mostly steady rainfall, and I went home a bit early.
Fishook cactus bloom. "Macro" mode on this phone doesn't seem like it's all that.

This was when it finally let go. Thunder claps as well...finally got me to turn and head back.

I had my "emergency cab" (aka clear shower curtains trimmed to fit each position) with me, but it's a hassle to install and not worth the hassle on this warmer day. I simply wore a rain poncho, and I think this is the direction I will go in warmer weather from now on. I bought a latching tote to replace my tools and junk bag, so it's out of the rain now, but I need to find a way to keep my backpack dry as well. I also think I'll drop my spare gas to maybe a 1-2 gallon can. I take WAY too much s*** with me...
