Windy Day -- March 9


We went up to Vedauwoo for a walk and a picnic.  It was super sunny, and the day before had been absolutely perfect.  We got to the parking lot (which was fairly full of other people's cars) and realized that it wasn't quite as nice.  The wind was something like 50 MPH, and there were gusts stronger than that.  As Andrew put it, the wind was so strong it was hard to think.


We thought that maybe if we got down in the trees, instead of being out in the open, it would be alright.  It got better, but not that much better. We ended up eating lunch in a Gazebo, behind a big rock that blocked some of the wind.  It was quite the afternoon.  We tried to laugh about it, and everyone was very ready to be in the car by the time we got back.  We clearly weren't the only ones with the same idea--it was pretty busy, and we weren't even the only people with a baby.  People around here are ready for spring, and you almost think it's here just in time for the temperature drop again.
