a bench will do

I went on a hike with my mom and we chose a different trail than last year.  I could not find a good rock to lay on..we even traveled over the river....

 through the desert... and saw a road runner!!  beep beep!

 passing tons of saguaro....

 and past lots of benches with good views...

 and one right in the sun..

It was finally HOT, so no need to lay down to soak in the rays, but I did anyway for a rest.
