890

There was wind today. It blew hard from left to right, then right to left. The dust was flying all over the place covering the valley floor like a fleece blanket. It reminded me of that big storm way back in the day. Living in this area has never been easy. It's not just the air and occasional wind storm that makes it hard, it is the people who live here who are constantly being reminded of how bad things were back when they were young. The economic crisis of today is nothing compared to how it was back in the day.
There was wind today and it reminded me of yesterday; not far back, but far enough back for me to say that living in this place is like living in a litter box with fine grain sand that mixes with splatting poop speckles that fly all around and inside us and the places we live at. There was wind today, and it really sucked!
