Only a third of a mile - but a 600ft drop in elevation. They have benches at every corner of the switchbacks for a reason. At first I was sympathetic to people wearing flip flops. Then I decided they were delusional. Especially those in PLATFORM flip flops on a trail of loose gravel that was STEEP.

Sorry about the zucchini. <br />We had pour the 'juice' of a scraped onion into a one-year-old's ear to relieve an ear infection. Garlic would have worked, too, but we only had an onion. The kid smelled like an Italian restaurant for days, but it did the trick. <br />I occasionally make pina coladas for my kids. I've tried to train them to say "pina-colada milkshake" (just forget getting them to say "virgin") but they still get funny looks from outsiders. <br /><br />Congratulations to Theo!Karen (formerly kcinnova)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16705613736966783261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-56455987934681488262009-08-19T04:35:02.510-04:002009-08-19T04:35:02.510-04:00I didn't see anything about knitting...
