Biting Sand

There were only a few people hiking through the Indiana Dunes to Lake Michigan the other day. The day was cool and very windy.

I didn't realize how windy it was until I reached the lake shore. Along the shore the wind was blowing up the sand and with every step every inch of exposed skin was sand blasted.

It is hard to believe something as tiny as a grain of sand can inflict so much pain.

The view was beautiful although I didn't stick around long to enjoy it.
