Mark: Well, Bernard, will you look at that? Bernard: A puddle! What's a puddle doing out on a sunny day like this? Mark: It must be a spring-fed puddle! Bernard: Imagine! A small body of water right on our own property! Mark: Well, of course! All the great communes have overlooked small bodies of water! Bernard: What'll we call it? Mark: Walden Puddle.

My daughter’s 8th grade class went to walden pond among other places in Massachusetts. I guess walden wasn’t the favorite. They did a tour of all the usual famous places around boston. They had a great time. I don’t think walden puddle was on their radar.
