Sunsets and Trails

Looks like Rain...

Seeing clouds in the mountains, we packed up the dog, backpack and camera for what looked like some cool weather at red rock canyon. A 20 minute decision till you r on the trail from the condo. Dark clouds hinted at rain though at least an hr to explore some of the usually tourist filled 1st pull off. finding only one car and realizing i hadnt done this trail head for three yrs it was a perfect chance. for some reason checking trails off a list seems to be why they ( the lists) were created. Right? Stephanie and I found the places that make this place the secret of Las Vegas. the aroma of Creosote bushes preparing for the rain that somehow they are able to sense, a smell familiar to those who venture onto Mojave trails. no animals in sight, likely preparing for the upcoming weather as well i suppose.
