Great Falls is windy.  Yes.  Yes, it is.

High winds can reek havoc, but can also leave you with an unexpected gift.  I recently was gifted a cornhole set.  One of those collapsible nylon pop up sets.  If only I could find the bean bags that go with the game.  But hey, maybe the high winds this weekend will deliver those bean bags.

Maybe the exact opposites happens.  Years ago after a wind storm I discovered my garden gnome had decided to become the neighborhood's newest travel blogger.  In the meantime his once-sturdy patio umbrella transformed into a caped crusader, and went soaring through the air landing across the street whipping out Tom's flower garden.

October 17, 2023 - Will History Repeat Itself?

Oh boy, that was a windy day.  I never imagined we had that many tumbleweeds  just rolling around the outskirts of Great Falls.  Waiting for some wind to come along to carry them into Eagle's Landing.  Ultimately, consuming homes.  That was messy.
