Above the Earth and beyond the clouds lies the City of Wind. It is a special place where winds are born and named. In the City of Wind, a slight breeze learns to become a gust, and a gust becomes a gale. Time comes in snurs and snips—a snur being more like a human month. Every breeze must decide upon which Great Wind to become a part of, such as the great North Wind, or even the West, East, or South Wind. This is Aanjay's story. Aanjay is a slight breeze who has yet to turn into a gust.

My Favorite Husband starred Lucille Ball and Richard Denning as Liz and George Cooper (Liz and George Cugat in early episodes). The couple lived at 321 Bundy Drive in the fictitious city of Sheridan Falls and were billed as two people who live together and like it.

As we look in on lazy little Sheridan Falls, the hometown of the Coopers, we find many signs that summer’s over.
