Was skiing in the woods and enjoying the sound of the pines whispering in the brisk wind. It was cold and windy with a wind chill factor. I was totally reveling in the sights, sounds, smells and feeling of being tucked in the woods. I stopped on purpose to listen closely to the wind as it whipped around and whistled loudly above the tree tops. I stood still and let the wind blow all around me, making my cheeks tingle. I heard a loud crack before hearing a tree slowing falling behind me, getting tangled and slowed on it's way to the ground by other trees in the way. It was a memorable sound and a good outing.
