When the chimes started clanging, I knew that the wild Summer weather had arrived. The leaves from the trees were fluttering. The bird feeder was banging back and forth against the magnolia. I looked out the kitchen window to see what the noise was about. It was too warm for rain. No clouds to see. Only ripples in the water below. I walked out on the deck and that's when I felt it. The strength of the wind startled me. I gathered a few things off the deck and opening the door, I blew in. Sitting down, I looked out the kitchen window. It pulled you in with it's commotion. I noticed all the boats swinging from side to side. Their buoys holding them in place. They were lined up and swaying like a Saturday night. As I turned away from the show, I knew I didn't need to worry. We had put in a mooring block and our boat was laughing while it danced.
