Three Men In a Boat

Rooty toot toot three men in a boat Heading for Niagara Falls Each one loudly protesting in their own lingo Gonna die where are the oars One was Russian couldn't decipher One Japanese no chance One a stuffy old Brit too long to translate Collectively wet their pants At the very edge a fairy flew down She stopped the flow With her magic wand sparkling in the skies And the skies were all aglow The magic fairy is remembered today As three men in a boat Saved from Niagara Falls by a magical force All three men still afloat

Not that far away... but it's been probably twenty years since our last visit! All these years and it's just around the corner! :)

Partial truth??? So you're Canamerican!!! I live about 50-60 miles away also! Practically neighbours! Stories back in the 40s and 50s were very much in the news about going over in a barrel! XOXO
