For many years when I was in my mid teens and early twenties I worked summer green pea harvest for Green Giant Co. The Shop Foreman had a Calligraphy piece that his wife had given him and I’ve always liked it! Perhaps someday I can find the right picture to include and someone to do the fancy lettering!
It said:
When you are up to your ass in alligators
It’s hard to remember
That your initial goal
Was to drain the swamp!
