Heading for the Club House today?
I found an interesting piece of history when I was doing some research online (when I should have been working or Spring cleaning)

"The Lovers, the Dreamers, and Me", in Acadia
"That beautiful season...Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood."-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

The lake is still frozen, the woods covered with snow
Only a few more days before the Maine lakes will no longer be frozen,
and the woods no longer covered with snow....
and the woods no longer covered with snow....
"Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening"
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
