I love this! The imagery is perfect. I can just see Abby and her dad in their truck. I'm wondering why she wants to harness the weather.... I'm wondering where her mom is... Looking forward to the next installment!

Ah, great, the start with the lovely day and then that rock, sorta whimsical at first, but then, "She owned the weather." Good one!

I like that you never said what her wish was! I'm always on board with a story that deals with the four elements, so I can't wait to see where you take this next week!

I’m happy you are liking the story, Claire! Thanks so much. There are two directions I might take it...still undecided as to which way I want to go!

I usually believe that less is more. But in this case - MORE please! And make it snappy!

On it, Sharron! And thank you! 😄

I look forward to part 2! That's a nifty plot device the stone with the four elements working like a remote control. Have a great week, Justin, and I'm going to try and make it this Friday for the 50s.
