Bellevue Nebraska
Yesterday I took my first hike of the year, at Fontenelle Forest Nature Center in Bellevue, Nebraska. When I started, at about 9:00 in the morning, temperatures were in the low 50's with a steady light breeze. By the time I finished early in the afternoon it was in the mid 60's with moderate, gusty winds.
