#the road less travelled

Quote
“A man of my acquaintance once wrote a poem called "The Road Less Traveled", describing a journey he took through the woods along a path most travelers never used. The poet found that the road less traveled was peaceful but quite lonely, and he was probably a bit nervous as he went along, because if anything happened on the road less traveled, the other travelers would be on the road more frequently traveled and so couldn't hear him as he cried for help. Sure enough, that poet is now dead.”
Lemony Snicket, The Slippery Slope

Middle in the Morning Light
Choosing the middle way may offer offer the safer, surer path, but it's a well worn,nd outdoor readddee
I observe the middleWhere the light burns brightestAnd the way is knownBy the well-worn pathTravelled by myriad feet I observe the middleThen choose another wayFor the well-worn pathHolds few surprisesAnd rarely offers insights Continue reading Untitled

I once found a path Forked where I stood Deep in a wood.
I couldn't choose both: That couldn't be. Just one of me.
The left side was leafy and pretty untrampled as well The right side might well have been muddy, and what if I fell?
So, I took the side Where none had gone, And carried on.
Path leads on to path: I've not been back I've lost my track.
It seemed like a simple decision of which way to go I chose a direction but everything's changed that I know;
Ahh, I'll never learn Which road was good Deep in that wood.

A Taste of Chocolate and the Trail
We were headed to West Virginia for a college graduation from WVU. Since we rarely received an opportunity to visit the South, Zach took this opportunity to do some hiking in Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Our first stop on our journey: Hershey's Chocolate World!
Tumblr media
After enjoying a taste of Hershey, we continued South on Highway 81 to Carlise, Pennsylvania. I dropped Zach off at just outside of Carlise, and was to pick him up further South along the trail.
While Zach was hiking I visited the U.S. Army Heritage and Education Center. Very interesting museum with a walking path that had several historical helicopters, tanks, and other army materiel. Free to visit! They also had some old posters hung in replica barracks from different time periods.

A thunderstorm was approaching while I was on the walking path, so I finished appreciating the materiel, and got back into the car to pick Zach up.
While I was driving to the pick up point, the sky opened up and it started to pour. The thunder and lightening was also bad and I became extremely concerned for Zach's safety. I arrived at the pick up point, which was on the side of a two lane road. It was raining so hard, I could barely see the entrance or exit to the trail. I parked the car and waited. The rain continued to pour.
About 15-20 minutes later the rain had stopped and Zach finally emerged from the woods. He was soaked to the bone and muddy.

Zach got into the car, and we drove to a place for him to change. I asked him what he did to remain safe during the thunderstorm. He said he was located at the bottom of a hill during the storm and waited for the storm to pass instead of climbing and walking on the higher elevation of the hill. When the storm finally subsided he continued his hike and climbed up the hill. It was extremely muddy for the rest of his walk in the woods.
After Zach dried off and changed, we then continued South for a stop in Gettysburg. Since it was late in the day, we could only do a few things. We came upon a tower that viewed multiple battlefields. We also got to see the regimental monuments.

We continued our journey to Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. When we arrived, there was a rainbow to greet us.

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.

Robert Frost (1874) Poem
“The Road Not Taken” is a poem that argues for the importance of our choices, both big and small, since they shape our journey through life. "Take the road less traveled." 🤔
