The Shire
Montgomery County, Maryland
near Comus and Barnesville, MD
PARENTAL ADVISORY: Poem on notebook cover is "PG-13"; implied adult themes.
Stamp is "G" rated.
The Usual Suspects, 7.14.02

Directions: same as "Tuscarora" except I've lived in Barnesville my whole life and never heard of a town called "Tuscarora".
North on 270. Get off at the exit for 'Comus, Sugarloaf Mountain'. Follow Old Hundred road into Comus; Right onto Comus, which leads to the Sugarloaf parking lot. Squirel's directions are better. Drive up to the West View.

Park your car at the West View, lower
Skirt the rock wall, it's not a trail, it's "other"
Now round the circle, widdershins
1969, turn off, tune in.
wind your way up, pass the stairs,
through the crack; there's blueberries there.
Along a ledge, and to the bend
you'll see a view and an eagle's head
and on your right there is a tree
Red Oak, I think, but don't ask me.
Behind the tree's a doggie's paw
now stick your hand into it's maw
Here is your prize, the one you seek
with poem written, not for the meek.
