It's May, the Windy Month of May

So here we are in Camolot, King! What do you think of it?
It's May, it's may, the merry, merry month of May!


I think we should change that to the Windy, Windy Month of May! Wow. Did you ever try to flyfish in fifty mile-an-hour winds! Hold on to your hat!

It remends me of a float trip down the Green River, WY once as the drift boat was being pushed upriver above the Flaming Gorge. The boat was actually going backwards upstream! The wind was obnoxious.

My fishing partner brought along his 4-weight for catching large 'bows and browns and the sport of it. The wind hardly allowed him to cast beyond the bow of the boat. The all day float was horrendous.

That night we felt as though we had been beaten and whipped by weather so hard we couldn't wait to get out of the wind. Okay, this May seems like that! A lot like that!
