          Two of Five
  Here's Carol on the same grade. Kristi is still on
          guard, I think.
  After the climb, the track makes a long turn to the left as the
          train negotiates its way through two Japanese Maples. Track in
          the background is where we'll be in a page or two from now.
  There's a long straight section along the back fence where the
          view of a park behind the house is terrific. This was taken from
          freight train tracks between us and the park. At certain times
          of the year, it's possible to pick blackberries here.
 
  Looking from the roof, we see Paul M. Newitt race a BART
          train on its way south. Yes, tall people can drive, but they have
          to be able to compress themselves considerably and the batteries
          must be at full charge!
 
  Carol approaches the second grade.
