"Trail's overgrown and washed out in spots; not too tough a hike for kids. Mile up. Worth the view. Starts at The Basin. Great river views along the way, including The Cascades, Kinsman Falls."

"Oops, worth noting, they don't take credit cards anymore. Menu says they do. Bring cash or EC card."

"Nice place, cool but not too pricey, in the Hotel Sofia. Back for the turkey burger and thyme fries before hitting the hay after a looong day of work and travel."

"Great, dark, subdued atmosphere, great steak."
