It wasn't *that* bad once we were in Galveston... ok, it was pretty gusty walking along the Strand, but no danger of Marilyn-Monroe-esque updrafts. MY wife was sticking pretty close to me, tho, with a hand ready to keep down any wayward pleats. (She's still not a big fan of my UK, says it looks like just a black skirt with cargo pockets. I'm planning on getting a Stillwater Nightstalker kilt next, for a more "traditional" style.)
