It is very windy here in Bethesda today. We've lost branches on our trees and shingles from our roof. The wind is blowing into vents on our house, making an eerie sort of music. It's nearly as bad as when Isabel blew through, but we've not [touch wood] lost power.
This wind reminded me of one of my favorite movies as a child, A High Wind in Jamaica. Have you seen it? I saw it several times on television growing up. Then I didn't see it again until about two years ago. I think I might buy the DVD.
I remember being very moved at the end. And I liked the theme song. I always thought it was Roger Whittaker, but it seems it was a Mike Leroy who sang the lead song which was a ballad kinda song.
I wish I could link to the song.
I can see why I thought it was Roger Whittaker. He sang a song called Last Farewell which was a ballad and involved a ship sailing to England - pretty much what A High Wind in Jamaica is about.
