About Me

The Road Not Taken
by Robert Frost
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.

My Interests

I can play 13 instruments -only woodwinds & percussion, no strings or brass. My favorite of them is the piano- I've played for 22 years, although I feel like I'm just now beginning to play as well as I should be able to. I love the water, downhill skiing is time well spent, and I love to dance more than anything else. A couple of dj's in the area can hold my interest like nothing else--- Mojo, lil Nate, DJ Jonah to name a few. I'm a people person- nothing more interesting than that... I'm open minded, too.
