+The first time I ever heard a loon was canoe camping beside a pond in Baxter State Park, Maine. When you have no idea what *that sound* is (*what that sound is?* -L and O), a loon call in the dark is terrifying.
+
+It's a been a long time since then, but I'll never forget that sound. I think about it every time we walk around the pond at Memorial Park.

+
+The pond at Memorial Park looks nothing like this one, which is the one I camped by in Maine, but memory is a funny thing. For whatever reason the little pond at Memorial Park reminds me of that one in Maine. There is no physical resemblance at all. Baxter is a wild place with few people around. The pond at Memorial Park is the opposite. There's even a fountain in the middle. Still, something about it.
+
+L and O have never heard a loon, never been to Baxter State Park. Yet.
+
+They're happy with the swings and the slides and the ducks.

+Geese they are not such big fans of, but last week the geese weren't around. Just ducks.

+And climbing, you can never climb atop too many rocks.
