Wind in the willow played tea for two...

It is soooooo windy today. I was just watching the weather lady and she said some places have been clocking over 90 MPH wind gusts. I guess it is some circular weather pattern that is coming down from the north west heading south and then turning and coming back up north east. strange.
When i lived at 8200 feet it was very common to get wind. Almost every day was incredibly windy. By the way the town sat in a canyon we got hit a lot. The worst part, was i lived in an incredibly small house and was right where the land would flatten a little from the divide, so i got hit hard a lot. I heated by a small gas heater and the wind would knock out the pilot light some nights. I would awaken to a cold, drafty, creaky old one room house and have to try to relight the pilot. Usually the wind would blow it out at least a dozen times before i could ever get it relight. Oh, i don't miss those times. But i guess i agree that what ever doesn't kill you only makes you stronger.
