I took a walk in the woods on a road I had not taken before, I had
my hubby, my shopping bag for pine cones and my camera There
were many lovely discoveries along the road, and it was so
peaceful, just my husband and me. Occasionally we'd hear some
voices, or see another walker, but for the most part it was just the
two of us. Our walk on former 1800's railroad bed, which is now
conservation land between New Hampshire and
Massachusetts, reminded me of a beautiful poem
The Road Not Taken ~ by Robert Frost
I hope you enjoy my pictorial walk
in the woods on 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;
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
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.
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
Beautiful photos!

What a beautiful autumn walk... isn't it interesting to see old bridges and stones along the way? And amazing how nature just walks back in when these busy industrial places get neglected.
