The road goes on - take it!
Eight fantastic days, lots of challenges, some great luck, and an incredible series of views. Looking over twenty miles down across a valley staring down an empty, perfectly straight road is something that I can't explain - you just have to see it. We all broke into the 70 mile days on a bike seat with complaining derrieres, sore legs and amazing memories. It is a great trade-off, believe me. As they say, the future is always out there, you just need to pick your road. For this week it was a great choice! PCC

The Road Not Taken Launch Audio in a New Window
ReplyDeleteBY ROBERT FROST
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.
