One hundred years ago, when I was younger, I was asked to sing at an outdoor wedding in Tacoma, Washington, USA. it was held at beautiful public park beside a beautiful lake. As the bride and groom and minister got them ready, they asked me to start singing and herd the crowd into a shady area for the ceremony. As we sang and walked toward the tree, very close to the waters edge, a large group of ducks started swimming toward us and climbed onto the shore and surrounded me. They were obviously enjoying the music. the crowd stopped, and started laughing as the ducks refused to move until I finished the song. When I did finish the song, they went quack quack, marched back into the lake and swam away. I'll never forget that moment. bob(deckman)nelson
