(July 22) Today we're celebrating . . . Pied Piper Day
Pied Piper Day
Recall today the legend of the Pied Piper, the German piper who saved the town from its rat problem by piping them out of town — and into the Weser River.
Legend has it that the piper then turned his talents on the town’s children, who followed him out of town, never to be seen again.
