Fresh Breeze in Vegas

[Exnavydiver]

Getting ready to go up to the range for work at the moment, trouble is that I can hardly get the door open to get out of the rig. My weather station says 29 knots gusting to 52. It doesn't look like there will be any target stands up on the range today. Like they say, if March comes in like a lamb it goes out like a lion. The wind is hitting us on the front right quarter and I may need to get a new slide topper for the big slide if this keeps up. If it weren't for the concrete picnic table our folding chairs would be in AZ by now. It even blew over the neighbors scooter. There several lawn chairs flying down the road and out in the desert bush...... Wheeeeeee!
