It’s windy in Moab… I mean REALLY windy. Yesterday we had gusts up to 40 mph plus all day (and all night). Today it is a bit better, but still really windy.
When you live in a house, it is easy to take the weather for granted. Unless it is extreme, the elements just don’t really make much difference when you have four solid walls. But when you live in a trailer, even the slightest weather can make you sit up and take notice. Or, as in our case for the last few days, sit up in bed all night unable to sleep because of all of the wind noise.
Darryl is a very light sleeper – so of course this wind storm we’ve been having has made the last few nights quite sleepless for him. But this wind has even kept ME up at night – and this is the girl who has not only slept through bears in camp but has even slept through ELEPHANTS walking through our campsite (yes, Elephants… long story).
It’s just another thing to get used to during this trip – and since this is the first “bad” weather we’ve had in our five months on the road I can’t complain. That said, I’m hoping the weatherman is right that the winds will die down later today and we’ll be able to get a good night’s sleep tonight!
