The Path

By Mike Arnold on Tuesday, May 18, 2004.

Many of us have them, that road, path or trail that we've walked for years. We notice the familiar trees bloom, turn and bare, we notice the spring frogs, summer wildflowers, and autumn colors. Writer Chet Raymo has walked the same one-mile path for 27 years from his home in North Easton, Massachusetts, to his work. ?There has never been a day I have walked the path without seeing something noteworthy, he admits, every pebble and wildflower has a story to tell.". Mike's guest is Chet Raymo, a retired professor of physics and astronomy at Stonehill College and author of "The Path: A One-Mile Walk Through the Universe" and "Climbing Brandon: Science and Faith on Ireland's Holy Mountain".
