Patagonian Wind or Lack There of

Wind.  And lots of it.

That is the common description of Patagonia.  We have heard that the wind never stops.

I agree that the wind is frequent here but then there are days like today.

Patagonia also is a place of incredible stillness.  Sitting out on the porch the piston-like thumping of a hummingbird’s wings against the air was so apparent that it woke our cat from his daily nap. 

Patagonia, like Argentina, is a place of continual change. 

As Jamie likes to say, “The only thing predictable about Argentina is the unpredictability.”

That goes for the weather too.

    I think you might be right on the quitting marathons thing. This race was probably set up to be the siren to lure you back in, and you still said no at the end. Nice!
