Peter's Mum's 100 Word Challenge

It’s no longer an unusual sight. Since that dreadful incident back in 1969, the remaining tower from the Park Hotel still floats silently above the town. The strong and trustworthy cables hold it firmly against all varieties of weather. Window boxes that were once home to a perfume scented spectrum of colour, now sit empty and unloved. The shutters, with their peeling paint, remain as they were on the day it happened. The mystery of the red balloon will never be solved. It still appears at 6:30pm every evening, signalling to the birds to come home to roost. By sunrise the next day, the balloon and the birds are gone...
