My Gull Barometer

Recently, storms having been blowing through the region with winds so strong that they had taken down several tall and seemingly sturdy trees along the route of our country drive today. A good indicator of bad weather is a flock of gulls taking refuge from waves on the bay by roosting inland on the mall parking lot. I have to admit, however, that my 'gull barometer' goes a little wonky around dinner time when the fish and chip wagon is doing a good business. ;-)
