I had time for a quick overnighter in the Juans, and my choice was between Thu morn (mostly cloudy/showers) or this morning (totally clear). So i gambled with the cloudy skies and hoped for the best, but of course the breaks didnt come until after the magic hour was gone

wow, just noticed lots of dust specks...bummer!
