Morning Serenity

Late the next morning, I groggily crawled out of a nice warm sleeping bag into
some shockingly cold morning air! It was nearly 8:30am, and Jason grumpily
explained that he'd been up long enough to get yelled at by a park ranger for
trying to light a morning fire. Apparently, campfires are only allowed between
17:00 and 22:00. Thus cold, we hastily got up, grilled ourselves a quick hot
breakfast (sausage and cheese wrapped in tortillas) and got ready. Since it
was still quite cold, we decided that the time was ripe for a morning drive around the valley
with the heater on full blast.
