I enjoyed your interview on NPR–it’s how I got to this site! For those who think the plastic bag issue is silly, I have news. A friend of mine who is a farmer told me that plastic bags sometimes get blown over the heads of his cattle and suffocate them. So besides trashing out the planet, plastic bags can be lethal. It would be interesting to know how many children are suffocated by them.

I heard your story on NPR in San Diego yesterday. The old bag looks good for 2 years old and being in the sun with out sun block. Windy, I hope makes it to 3 years!

Yes, Bill. It’s still there. Shreds of it. The top part is wrapped very tightly around the branch and the rest is in strips. I can always see it when the wind blows and the leaves are down.

Just wondering, is the bag still in the tree?

On Monday, August 17th, 2009, the bag will be gone. Sorry for the inconvenience; he does that sometimes. Just parks in any old tree.

I'll guess July 9th. And it will happen at night so on the morning of the 9th it will just be gone. Will’s last blog post..Healthy Thumbs

I'll put a nickel down on Aug. 7th, 2009. Now, as it is apparently in two pieces does just one piece have to coem free or both for it to be officially "free" of the tree? If you need a second date for the second half of the bag I'll go Oct. 21st, 2009...just to cover the bases. Bill’s last blog post..1966 Cobra Replicar Raffle

So I just read that there is a back story to how Windy got stuck.

But Mid-Night Waderers seems to be closed to outsiders. That is stoopid. I remember they were open before !

Can you send me the story ?

EclecticWAHM — Yep. She’s still there. Looking really ragged, though. I think she’s split in two, but both pieces appear to still be intact. Look for an update at the one year mark. I keep a daily tracker in my sidebar so you can know when it’s coming up.

Seriously? It's STILL there? No big wind storms? Blizzards? Can nothing stop the bag? Or half-bag at this point...either way that would make me nuts. I'll venture a guess...May 11. EclecticWAHM’s last blog post..Day Twenty-Four - Join My Network

Carla — I’m thinking of posting again about the bag. It’ll probably be a video, so we can really determine how much is left of it. It requires I stand out on the roof of my building, I didn’t get much sleep last night, and it’s like 4 degrees out. Chances I’ll do it today are very slim, but I’d still like to because tomorrow is Day 300 for Windy.

Since only half the bag is there I'm going to only make half a guess. March Carla’s last blog post..We’re ok, thanks for asking.

Dr Z Amps — It’s looking really bad. I think I’m due for another update. Sometimes it looks like only half the bag remains, other times it’s all there. Depends on the weather and how soaked it is.
