Dr. Foster went to Gloucester

I read Baikal the Dr. Foster poem a while back. Like most of her books, she likes to have the same one read to her several times and then is on to something new. So it has been a few weeks since we did the Dr. Foster poem, but this morning I was watching the news and they were reporting from Gloucester. Out of habit I said, "Dr. Foster went to Gloucester." There was a bit of a pause then I heard Baikal say, "in a shower of rain" I continued on, "he stepped in a puddle right up to his middle." And Baikal finished with "and never went there again." What a memory!!! I was so impressed.
