The wind lashed the bare trees and swept the snow into tall drifts."That way!" said Annie. She led the way down the castle steps to the path.
"Mr. Perkins was a nice guy," said Annie as they headed toward the west side of the park.
"Yeah," said Jack. "Someday I'd like to go back there and see all his weather instruments."
Jack and Annie trudged through the storm, until they saw buildings just beyond the trees.
