Listen...

...can you hear the wind?

The sky was clear, the temperature cold, the wind was absolutely howling. And I was drawn to the coast to satisfy a walking desire.

The ocean was quiet, but the wind was blowing waves across the water - ponds and inlets - on the land side of the road. It was 22 degrees when I popped out of my car, cold, colder than cold with the addition of the strong wind. It was a good walk, shorter than I wanted due to the temperature and the wind, but still a good opportunity to clear my mind.
