THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED by Sarah Raplee

EXPLORING LAVA CASTS
MOUNT SAINT HELENS

Hi, I'm Sarah Raplee, author of Paranormal Romance.
I’ve always been a curious person. My dear husband is the same, which is a blessing. We’re both explorers at heart.


OCHOCO NATIONAL FOREST




The drive to discover informs nearly every aspect of my life. As a result my favorite places are roads less traveled:


PAINTED HILLS OF OREGON

CIVIL WAR RE-ENACTMENT
FT. STEVENS OREGON


back roads and byways; dusty paths and wild forest trails; pioneer cemeteries, mines and caves and ghost towns.




STANDING AT THE END OF THE ROAD


One of my favorite poems is The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost (from The Poetry of Robert Frost by Robert Frost.) 

I’m especially fond of the last verse.

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.
