Not much activity on today's hike so while resting at Isabel Harte, I snapped this shot looking NW toward the solar array farm along FM2288.

Temps started at 79, ended at 89.  Overcast and humid turning partly cloudy and drier.  5-10mph SW breeze.

Easy hike along dry and familiar trails.  I did the Roadrunner Loop first then took a short hike toward Isabel Harte before the "predicted" storms are scheduled to arrive tonight.

Not much activity although I saw white tail deer at various places, very few birds and a Hored Toad about the size of my thumb joint.  Otherwise, it was very peaceful with a few folks sharing the trails with me.

NOTES - 

Water, shade, info kiosk, toilets and a bicycle repair station at Playground parking area.

Water and shade at various campsites along Roadrunner as well as three locations with water, shade, info kiosks and toilets.

Water and shade at Isabel harte as well as a dry toilet.
