BELLEPLAIN — Leaves throughout Cape May County seemed to be awaiting the touch of frost to change from their hues of green into a profusion of colors.
The Belleplain State Forest is one place to take in autumn’s splendor on less traveled back roads.
Was it a scene similar to the one above that inspried poet Robert Frost to pen his famed, “The Road Not Taken?”
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood

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.
