This request was made by Maleck Odinsson for the Huron River.
Hail to the Huron River
Called Giwitatigweiasibi by the Wyandot
Called Ana by the Druids who know Her
I hail You
Your blessed waters flow
From the blessed swamp
To Lake Eerie, called Erielhonan or Eri
I hail You
You, Who carries trade
You, Who carries countless boats and canoes
You, Who carries and cares for countless fish
I hail You
You, Who bears your waters with care
You, Whose paths are gentle
You, Whose waters quench the throats of thousands
I hail You
Your form carries countless homes
Your blood is carried in countless millions
Your body bears countless lives
I hail You
Hail to You, beautiful Míkilvaettr
Hail to You, great Vatnvaettr
Thank You for allowing me to know Your cool waters, Your sloping shores, Your many children
Hail to You, Huron River
Sarenth Odinsson 
Am I correct in recalling that the Huron River runs through Ann Arbor?

Yup, it runs through a good chunk of the southeast of the State. It is 130 miles long running through Dexter, Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, Belleville, Flat Rock, and Rockwood.

Very cool! When I first got there, I saw there was a river, and asked what its name was to various folks, but some of them didn’t know or couldn’t remember, and then I looked closely for the sign posting what it was (as there usually is in WA), and eventually someone remembered and told me. I thanked the River when I moved away, certainly, since I had not properly thanked it when I arrived since we hadn’t been introduced! 😉

Very cool! Thank you for sharing that. I’m glad that even though you did not get a good introduction you were able to say farewell and do right by the river.
