    Yep, some serious winds here today, knocked down a pine that was gonna come down anyway.

    Of course, now I'll have to fill in the hole. I was gonna leave the stump for a beer stand as it's near the horseshoe pits. :doh:

    Lots of wind last night but the odd thing was it wasn't real bad at ground level. I heard the wind and stepped outside and the sound of the wind was scary whistling thru the trees on top of the hills.

    That is a fun experience stepping outside and not enough wind to blow out a match but you can see trees at the top of the hill really whipping around and marvel at the sound of the wind.
