The Path Less Trodden

Robert Frost wrote a poem called "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."

     That poem was the inspiration for the name of this blog. As a school teacher, I find that although I often have time to travel, I don't usually have the money to travel everywhere I would like to go. Instead, I have to choose places that are more affordable. This has led me off the beaten path, away from some of the pricey, busy tourist traps to hidden gems along paths less trodden. I have often found that these less trodden locations are much more enjoyable than the overpriced, overcrowded tourist traps. They definitely provide more bang for your buck.
