Look Up!

The whole town looked up in awe. Wendy Dow Asher teetered above as she did her job. Dogs barked and tried to warn the on lookers.

Ms. Fanny Noitall dressed in purple and her fanciest Sunday hat bewildered that it was happening, reached into her purple purse for her phone to call Ms. Nancy Tailtale to let her know what was going on. But Ms. Nancy Tailtale was standing there watching as well, from across the crowd.

Helicopters began to circle the area. The crowd grew larger and larger to see the spectacle fifty floors up.

Little Johnny and Jacob Myers dressed in matching yellow shirts and overalls, were playing by the statue when their attention to running around in circles was stopped by the "oh no's and oooohh dears..." of the crowd distracted them drawing theirs eyes upward.

Mayor Seymore Buns with his traditional Hawaiian Lei attempted to calm the crowd. "It is ok. Please remain calm." he said with arms up, patting the air, as if he were patting each and every back. While Officer Darrin Fort Ruble stood with his arms crossed paying more attention to up above rather than the crowd he was suppose to be controlling, the wind blew. The crowd 'eweed.'

"Oh don't" screeched Sally Sue Somebody, as she lifted her hands to cover her eyes. The wind blew stronger.


And then she did it. No one could believe it. Everyone held their breath as they watched. Windy wiped the windows and left a streak.
