The Road Less Traveled. With all due respect Mr. Frost, perhaps it was the road less traveled because it was a stupid way to go in the first place! There was probably a better and safer way to maneuver to the destination.
This comes to mind as we rest our tootsies tonight. Visiting the walled city of Orvieto today entailed a quaint funicular ride up the hill. It entailed the silly idea of walking back down the trail less traveled. Steep, traditional stone path, and greenery abounding. We were the only two who chose this method of transportation after a lovely day in the town, a delightful lunch with wine, and a little shopping.
Thankfully, we did not slip and fall, stumble over a rock, or get a hitchhiking tick. And we made it to our train on time and back to our ‘hood safely. Successo!
Ha – that’s like someone climbing down a mountain of loose stones, of mostly granite, when there was a groomed walking train about 50 feet away!
Those who do not learn from history………
I bet is was great wine!
Third times a charm! Where are we going to go to learn this lesson?
