Yep, we had the wind here, too. My sister and brother in law insist on hanging these huge, loud windchimes with a reverb that lasts about 20 minutes right outside my window. It was like living inside a church organ all fucking weekend. Otherwise, I coulda dealt.

So, what did *you* put into jars for the winter? (And, btw, great mental image there, eeeuw. Wasn't there a movie like that at one point?)
