Mr. Terry's Neighborhood

Thursday, January 30, 2014

2) The dust of snow from a hemlock tree

4) And saved some part of a day I rued

6) His house is in the village though

8) To watch his woods fill up with snow

10) The darkest evening of the year

12) But I have promises to keep

Who is Mr. Terry?

Mr. Terry is a retired teacher and coach. A former hunter, he now hunts only with a camera. He hunts the woods and mountain tops of northern Pennsylvania, both day and night. Back in the day he taught history and coached track at Mansfield High School. He was a very smart and clever teacher and coach so it surprises no one that he is masterful with a camera. His record for wins in track and field was so good he was nearly featured in Sports Illustrated — but the dummy who wrote it forgot to send it in! His wife, who the animals call Miss Janie, was also a great teacher who was awarded the Elsie Burk Service Award at Mansfield University, for her hard work and dedication in giving back to her alma mater.
