Hello @brisby,
I was getting ready to write my little story for @calluna when I saw this. Wow! You really knocked it out of the ballpark with this one (or some analogous squirrely activity). Just wrote a rough draft. Had fun--no gem, just a bit of sport to join in the contest--a response to your stormy challenge. I'll be appending my story to this comment later. Right now, resteeming, so more eyes will see and participate.

My story, fresh from the sea, here:
La Sentinelle and the Lighthouse Keeper

That was fun!
