Practice CRewrite the following paragraph, correcting the fifteen errors in capitalization.
A few years ago my family visited this area of north Carolina. Sixteen strong, we had to find a variety of Tourist attractions to appeal to each one’s interests. Everyone wanted to ride the railway, but not every-one wanted to go White-water rafting. Naturally we all enjoyed congregating at places such as ryan’s and wendy’s to eat. Strangely enough, one of the favorite outings was down a short trail to a cold mountain stream with a huge Slippery Rock, where the water dropped six feet into a pristine pond. And no one even had to get his visa card out to pay for it! Because this particular activity was so rewarding, I was reminded of the last few lines of the poem “the Road not Taken” by Robert Frost.
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.
It’s not always the glamorous and expensive places such as the Biltmore house or the Grove park inn that are the most enjoyable and fulfilling. Sometimes it’s just a small trail off a back road near Cashiers, North carolina.
