Living among the corn, soybean, and wheat fields of central Ohio not only meant wide open spaces, but also, lots of wind. Carl was constantly having to replace shingles from the roof; twice siding was torn off and away.
Wind was something we came to expect.
Taiwan can get a little windy, too.
During the winter months, Kenting, located on the western side of the southern tip, is especially windy.
Time on the beach may include a little sand blasting. Most of the time, its just slightly irritating.
But, if you desire to see gorgeous views on the eastern side of the tip, the wind is more than slightly irritating. Its down right gusty.
I know because every time we go to Kenting, we drive around the tip. And every single time, I have almost been blown away!
Except this time, we didn't drive around the tip, we cut across it.
Yes, its a dirt road.
Yes, its deserted.
And up to the right, is a cemetery.
But, that little tiny road led to...
amazing views.
And a strong enough gale that would make every 16th century sailor ecstatic.
We were going for the wind blown look!
Much to this momma's worry, Ben would find a drop off, then proceed to lean over, allowing the wind's force to counteract gravity's downward pull.
Fortunately, this wind didn't bring damage to our house or property,
which allowed Carl, the peace and time to enjoy God's beauty!
