Cool Day In the Desert

What a difference when the sun does not shine. It’s normal in the desert for the evenings to have temperatures in the 40’s this time of year but it warms up quickly once the sun is up, which it normally is. Today however we woke to cloudy grey skies and it is not warming up much. Long pants and a light jacket are the uniform of the day.

One thing they don’t tell you when you sign up for unlimited call, text and data with your cell provider, at least with T-Mobile, is that you are limited to 2GB if using your phone as a wireless hotspot. We seem to use the 2GB up well before our month is up. Such was the case last night when I tried to post the blog. So first thing this morning I was off to find a McDonalds to connect. This resort offers WIFI but you have to subscribe and it’s not secure. I do have a wireless MIFI which I reactivated for a month, so we should be OK for a while. It’s a little bit more expensive than what is offered here but it is secure and probably much faster.


The sun finally managed to make its appearance around 3:00 this afternoon which made for a beautiful remainder of the day. With broken clouds still in the sky I knew that I had another sunset photo op.
