If you can read this, thank a teacher
I always am amused by this bumper-sticker. I was reminded of it yesterday as we drove by Gray’s Lake in Idaho, and saw Sandhill Crane’s (see Mary’s blog on Tincup Creek for more comments on Gray’s Lake). I remembered my 9th grade English teacher, Miss Davies, teaching us a poem about the Sandhill Crane. She pointed out that the rhythm of the poem matched the gait of the crane. A fact lost on me at the time (not a lot of crane’s in San Jose) - but watching them walk - sure enough - the poem matched the gait.
