The wind comes sweeping down the plain

When I moved west, my friend Kim came with me. She'd visited the area before, but never lived here. I really gave her the hard-sell, so when she read today's weather forecast and it said "Blowing Dust," she wasn't very happy with me. "You never mentioned blowing dust!" I answered with something snappy like "Uh, bluh, duh."
By a very happy coincidence, we received our first electric bill today. It was dramatically less than the electric rates back east, prompting Kim to exclaim, "Blow you turbines blow!" All's well that ends well.
