...and see pg. 8 for the Lawndale Trail...says it's 2.9 miles but it
connects up with some other trails...we could make it as short or as
long as we want! (I have a printed copy for reference on the trail.)
Let me know what you guys think about how long we should hike, what
time we should stop, etc. or else we can decide
