Gone, The Wind

You don't camp on the edge of a mesa or near a cliff if you like calmness.  And yet it has been remarkably calm during the day.  The wind comes back for revenge in the middle of the night.   Strange.

High winds make it difficult to sleep, not so much because of the rock-and-rolling, but for the noise.  Anti-noise headphones




help a lot.  I have never used the headphones for that purpose before.  They work!

It feels silly to have spent so much for the headphones and then hold them back "in reserve," rather than actually putting them to use.  But that is exactly what I have done.  Bicyclists can be familiar with this syndrome: they might struggle up a hill but resist using their lowest gear.

So there are advantages to growing old and gradually going deaf. HA Just remove the hearing aids and sleep with your 'best' ear buried in the pillow.
