In the winter I love taking the time to praise chilly mornings, with their glorious warming sun and with absolutely no wind. It is impressive how perfectly opposite summer can be.
A breeze is such a relief in summer. Typically you only get it in mid-day, but that is when you really need it. I still have to pinch myself to break out of the "wind is bad" mode of thinking.
Granted, forests tend to suppress the breeze. At the moment I am camping at 6000' on a bald stony ridge with just a few trees. It is necessary to keep the trailer hooked up to the van, in order to dance with the shade from those trees. After two hours of sun on my solar panels, I chase the shade the rest of the day, with about four relocations.
Maybe a summer camper should think of sailboats: they are completely dependent on a breeze. A sailor is miserable on a calm day.
The breeze held strong the entire night, last night.
