Bad Landings happen, we just need to learn from them.

Today I landed with a crosswind in a 182RG, when the cross wind died, I was about 3 feet off the ground, I didn't take the crosswind correction out soon enough and the downwind wing started to float up and I was heading for the edge of the runway at 60 knots, I manged to save it but it sure did shake me up a bit.
