Sightseeing
Walking around Walden Pond conjures up thoughts of Thoreau and Emerson and all those thoughtful transcendentalists. Margaret Fuller still holds sway over many. At the Alcott house actors wear period costumes. The whole town is a testament to their continued grasp on our imaginations.
People come to pay homage to what is left of Thoreau's home in the woods. They seek directions to Author's Ridge to see the graves of those erudite folks. They tread the very battle field walked by farmers with rudimentary firearms. They buy buttons that extol simplicity -- phrases uttered by Thoreau.
Not many drive over to see the prison?
