52 hike challenge (#6)

I thought our high wind warning was over at 11am, so I waited until after lunch to go for my walk/hike. OMG, there were times when I could barely stand upright! When I got back home I double checked and realized it was still in effect until 11 PM! D'oh! Well, that explains it! Per the National Weather Service, we've been having 40-50mph winds, with gusts up to 75mph! But despite the windy conditions, it still felt good to get out there and get some fresh, sunny air.

It's hard to get a selfie with my walking buddy, Doug the dog. 

Holy mud, batman!

Doug loves the creek at the halfway point!

Doug also loves the neighbor's animals. They do not love him. 

Short sleeves! In February!!!

And here are two goofy little videos to try to give you a sense of how windy it was:
