Thar She Blows (Blowing Rock, NC)

This is the Blowing Rock of Blowing Rock, North Carolina.  It is located at the peak of a cliff, which is shaped sort of like a horseshoe, the rock being in the center of the curve of it.  If you walk up to it you can hear the wind blow against it.

Remember in front of it is a big valley.  I think if you read Sam Carsley's and My Big Adventure With Paper Airplanes over the Etowah Valley side of Allatoona Dam you would understand perfectly why the wind does this.
