Farewell to Grundy

Since our time at Grundy is nearing its end, I have composed a little ditty called "My Grundy Park Things", that is sung to the tune of " My Favorite Things". This sums up what I love and will miss the most about this place. God willing, I will return again next year and do it all again.  

Raindrops on rooftops
And bright morning sunrise
Ducks with their ducklings
And loons with their loud cries
Swans and their babies with white downy wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Hot days and hot nights
And carving on soapstone
Long swims to the island
The use of my cel phone
Bass, pike and pickerel creating fish rings
These are a few of my favorite things

Big snapping turtles
And bears  black as midnight
Jackrabbits and raccoons
And hummers in mid-flight
Great friends and great stories while the campfire sings
These are a few of my favorite things

When the bugs bite
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my Grundy Park things
And then I don't feel so bad
