a wonder!
Reblogged this on It Is What It Is and commented:
What a beautiful sight … the joy in her face is contagious and incomparable!!
It is!
Isn‘t this rather a ski-ing shot? The white in the background, the warm coat with a furry collar? The horror of going down a hill totally rudderless???? How do I know? I just do….. 😉
Oh, I’m sure you do!
😉 – I happened to be on the very snowy ‚Uetliberg‘ in Zurich yesterday, went up in sunshine and it was foggy when I was there…. Walked in my leather boots and promptly slipped and fell heavily on back & backside. A throbbing headache and blues on my body were my ‚reward‘ for this. You see, I can do flying hair without skiing ….. 🙂
Ouch. Are you ok Kiki?
Quite so. It didn‘t affect my typing fingers‘ skills 😉
Great!
Yes, I do, know how it is!
Her expression is priceless!
It is!
That’s kind of how I feel these days with the static electricity in the air during this cold snap. It’s unusually dry here just now. But this windy day picture would last longer than one quick electric zap. I think she’d better find an elastic band for her hair. Looks quite breezy.
Ha. I bet if the wind was in sub zero temps, she wouldn’t be so exhuberant!
I agree! I find myself getting annoyed with my sweet dogs when they won’t do their numbers fast enough on these cold days and I have to stand and wait. I put my hood up so I won’t have a hairdo like your girl in the photo, but still, it’s darn cold!
I want that feeling! One hour would go a long way!
4 minutes for me. That’s it!
I’ll take any! Now more than ever.
Me too!
Hope your happy and healthy!
All good thank you. Hope u are well too
After reading Kiki’s comment, I’m thinking the woman could really be lying down with hair splayed out after a slip and fall. Hmmm…perspective.
No! Let’s hope not!
Gee … I could only wish for THAT much hair to blow in the wind … great picture!
Laughing. So me too!
I saw a picture of a girl in the mid-west during that deep-freeze. She went out with wet hair and came in looking like the girl pictured here. Except without the wind.

And I’m guessing far less happy about situation.
You guess right. But I’m sure she saved a picture to be shown around school to her friends.

And all over Social Media
It snowed again, last night…It has almost completely melted…supposed to have very icy conditions and colder tomorrow…so a person needs to be wearing a hat…///I say oh, Red hair! /// Only at the beach or in western North Dakota in the winter/spring and sometimes summer (assume it blows in the fall, haven’t been there then) does my hair blow…I can imagine how the pioneer and dust bowl women could go mad when the prairie wind pushed against you, stinging eyes & in the white winter the wind drifting snow while hanging laundry and the dust blew in through every crack of the farmhouse, taunting…the howl, the clanging, the whistling call, un-relentlessness..baying ///the red hair women is experiencing an exhilarating moment, Whee!! and I thank you for your share,,,
