Grignard_TN Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) A lyric in the Canadian Railroad Trilogy by Gordon Lightfoot goes " Over the mountains and over the plains, into the muskeg, and into the rain". Having not known this piece of Canadian vocabulary, I never heard the line correctly. Yesterday it sort of just clicked. Muskrat? Masthead? No, muskeg Edited November 10, 2020 by Grignard_TN 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
