I came across this news item, and it greatly saddened me as it would all who have enjoyed, and appreciated Robert Frost's poems. How disgusting is this...here is a snippet from the CBC:

Vermont police are investigating what they suspect was an illicit drinking party at the former summer home of poet Robert Frost.

Intruders broke into Homer Noble Farm, where Frost spent his summers from 1939 until his death in 1963, either late Friday or early Saturday morning and ransacked the historic site, leaving empty beer bottles, cans and plastic cups strewn about, police said Monday.

Tables, chairs, windows, light fixtures and dishes were among the items smashed, destroyed or set ablaze as firewood inside the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet's two-storey residence.

The vandals also discharged fire extinguishers and left vomit around the building, according to Sgt. Lee Hodsden.

Police have tracked down some minors whom they believe attended what appeared to be the underage drinking party held at the house.

However, no arrests have been made, Hodsden said.

A hiker discovered the damage Saturday afternoon and notified Middlebury College, which owns and maintains the site. The caretaker responsible for the site had last stopped at Homer Noble Farm Friday morning, police said.

We here in Canada have also had our fair share of historic sites either ruined or outright destroyed by idiotic youth who are obviously in need of some parenting.
