Well….it really is eye opening how windy it is out here in Muskegon…we are under another gale warning today with steady winds of 20-30 mph out of the southwest with gusts of up to 50 mph and I can hear it howling out there right now…one good thing is that we have no big snow in the forecast until late this week and that will help healing up my back from all of the shoveling I had to do wed, thurs, and fri….and the pain has been subsiding a bit but it still hurts and I hope staying off the bike today will help, too….it’s too windy for the birds to even land on the sill or feeder and I’ve only seen one all this morning and I was hoping to see what I saw yesterday with lots and lots of the Juncoes coming back…at least the sun is shining for the time being and that is a welcome occurrance with how gloomy it’s been out here lately….okay, time to take it easy and figure out what I’m going to do for lunch…
