7/9, Grants, 5.2/6.0/86L

Heck, the trees were even bent over at my house at 6:00. So much for all the forecasters predicting light winds. I think the High must have moved SE instead of the predicted north. 23mph at Grants when I left the house, threw in the 5.2 right before I drove off, expected it to drop by the time I got there, but it had increased to 28 gusting 31, wow! Totally wound up on the 5.2 and the screaming iSonic for an hour. Took a short break and it seemed to drop a notch so went with 6.0 for another hour of screaming rides. Around 10:00 it started swinging west and was too up and down to enjoy. My body was toast anyway from doing the Karate Kid car-wash exercises on the motor home for 2.5 hours the day before. Picked up a sack of trash and headed for an Indian food lunch celebration.
