Yesterday the northwest wind blew me down the county road that heads east as I walked. It was a bugger bucking it coming home. Today the wind coming from the southeast made me pull my neck wrap over my mouth. Admittedly it was nice being blown home. As I rounded the corner coming off of the county road, I found myself humming “She’ll be coming around the mountain when she comes, when she comes . . . ” Dennis was waiting for me and helped me peel out of the multi layers of socks and mittens and then proceeded to pull the neck wrap over my head. I was chilled but not cold. When I checked what the temps were yesterday and today and then was brave enough to see what the wind chills were, I put my big girl sweat pants on and gotter done. I feel if I take the cold as it comes, my chances of walking until the road surfaces are no longer safe are pretty good.
