Talgoland: It's all that you can't leave behind

Anticipation

I'm standing here staring down the barrell of greater than a week of travel, but with only less than $200 in my pocket. Eek! Still, if I can live as cheaply as I can, it's going to be a helluva trip, taking me to a number of places I've not been to before, and allowing me to visit with a friend I have not seen in over a year. And it will get me back to my beloved Oregon. Even if I am flat broke when I get back, it will be worth it!

And besides, then I won't have to hear from railohio all about his shiny, shiny MacMini, grr....

Because you can't stay away from blogging when it's free..

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 Iâ€” / I took the one less traveled by, / And that has made all the difference.

â€” Robert Frost
