# 317 Big Wind - What's the Point?

My neighbor went for a walk outside this morning. I went to the health club instead - it was extremely windy down our way, and some slick.  But because it didn't seem all that cold, she braved it and took off on her own to meet another neighbor who was just as brave.

It was fine going downwind with that little bit of a push from behind, but when she stopped to greet her other neighbor, both were forced to grab that neighbor's mailbox to keep from getting blown further down the road. After a brief moment to analyze the situation, they both decided it might be wise to throw in the towel. She ended up accepting a ride home from the neighbors husband, otherwise they would both still be blowing like flags off that mailbox I'm sure.

The only times a big wind is necessary in my opinion, is when it's too hot, we need to get somewhere fast in our sailboat because there's a big  scary wind storm coming up behind us, or snow needs to be blown off the branches of trees so they don't topple. Otherwise, what's the point?
