Holy cow is it ever windy today! Â As I write this, it is still dark out which means it is normally quiet. Â Today though, the wind is howling through our doors and making an incredible racket. Â It almost sounds like a buzz-saw running outside.
I understand that we are to have gusts as high as 40 mph today and our hilltop gets every bit of that. Â We are the next mountaintop over from the airport where they measure those sorts of things. Â It’s funny but our trees show the wear from the years of being on this windy hilltop too.
I tried to take Ginny out but she would have nothing to do with that! Â I guess she’ll cross her legs all day! Â Anyhow, when I step out into wind like that, I always think of that commercial that played when I was a kid…”When I take a bite out of a York Peppermint Patty…” Â Today is going to be a York Peppermint Patty sort of day!
