The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference
Written between 1916-1920
Robert Frost
The poems of Robert Frost are by far my favorite. I can remember needing to memorize, recite and analyze these poems in high school. Even after all these years, this one has stuck with me and I thought it would make for a fitting cache.
The cache itself is in an area much like described in the poem. As of 4/27/2013 - the container is a micro "inside" a more natural item. Please rehide carefully.
Trailheads are located along Boston Street (Rte. 62) & Lake Street. Both spots provide a very similar hike to the cache.
The container has some small trinkets my daughters thought of and $1.00 for the FTF. FYI, back when the poem was written (early 1900's) $1.00 was comparable to $20.00..something to think about.
I hope the coords are accurate. As this is my first hide, any comments on better coordinates are welcomed.
Congrats to the CO-FTF group of HostaHead, Froedo Bagginz, WINDWAKER and Wolftamer! Hope you split the FTF prize equally...
