We were expecting it to be cold, wet and windy this morning when we put the lights up, but fortunately we only got one of the three, the wind. It was actually so windy that I woke up about 4:30 in the morning and I figured it was going to be too windy to put up the lights. The wind was howling, and the trees in our yard were whipping around so I decided to sleep in, but then I heard the radio traffic indicating that they were starting so I got up and rushed down there.
