Winston Churchill… and a Rubber Duck

In this episode of Meandering Musings, Neil Peterson shares an unexpected travel story that combines two of his passions: Winston Churchill and rubber ducks. After purchasing a Churchill-themed duck in London and believing it was lost forever, Neil is touched by the kindness and humor of a hotel staff that not only returned it but sent along a new duck companion and a handwritten note. It's a reflection on how small, thoughtful gestures can leave a lasting impact.Find Meandering Musings online at meanderingmusings.netLearn more about The Edge Foundation here edgefoundation.orgSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
