I was picking up around the apartment and for some reason I got to playing a song in my head.
The Erie CanalIt's one of those songs they hit you over the head with in gradeschool (and even junior high) music classess. Or at least they did 40 years ago.
Since picking up is pretty mindless, I got to wondering about that repeated line of "Fifteen niles on the Erie Canal". And it suddenly dawned on me that 15 miles was a *long* way back in the old days.
Just one of those . "Oh....." moments.
