    These have been wonderful years. How many happy, happy times we have traveled about together! Day and night, in stage coaches, on freight trains, over the mountains and across the prairies, hungry and tired, we have wandered. The work was sometimes hard and discouraging but those were happy and useful years.

    Beside the crystal fountains.
    So come with me, we’ll go and see
    The Big Rock Candy Mountains.
