Geocache Description:

Kangaroo Island's own Lover's Lane. One can only wonder about the history of this quiet lane. The local residents have a very unusual address- you may be forgiven for double checking.


Lovers' lanes have existed for centuries, sometimes as places for secret meetings with a loved one. They have been made famous by urban legend and Poet Eugene Field who wrote about the Lover's Lane in Saint Joseph Missouri. There is even a horror movie named "Lovers Lane". Let's hope that the KI version is a little more sedate. An easy drive-by.

 

Lover's Lane, St. Jo   by Eugene Field (1850-1895)


Saint Jo, Buchanan County,
   Is leagues and leagues away;
And I sit in the gloom of this rented room,
   And pine to be there to-day.
Yes, with London fog around me
   And the bustling to and fro,
I am fretting to be across the sea
   In Lover's Lane, Saint Jo.

 

I would have a brown-eyed maiden
   Go driving once again;
And I 'd sing the song, as we snailed along,
   That I sung to that maiden then:
I purposely say, "as we snailed along,"
   For a proper horse goes slow
In those leafy aisles, where Cupid smiles,
   In Lover's Lane, Saint Jo.
