Last night was interesting, with gusts to 24 mph. I'm not used to that.


Different story this morning. Crisp and cool (can it be crisp if it's one degree above freezing?) with puffs of a breeze. Bad weather usually blows through in an hour or two, this front took two days to clear out.


I took the leg that goes up beside the woods. If there's any migratory birds, they're all busy looking for food instead of singing. I wonder if they're like the hummingbird they banded in the Smokies a couple years back, which took a 400 mile detour back to the Gulf of Mexico the day before a front moved through to avoid the storms and then came back north (getting caught three times in one migration!). Either that or the bird was getting frequent flyer points. -)
