The wind chimes tinkled softly, signaling the arrival of the long-awaited sea breeze and the end of the heatwave.

Although the earth continued to shake, the aftershocks of Sunday's earthquake seemed less ominous than they did during the oppressive heat.

We watered our thirsty plants and walked our restless dogs, and thanked God for the wind that pushed its way inland to cool our grateful neighborhood.
