~340' in a mile and a half, or something close to that, outside of
Puyallup. Well, that and the climb out of Napavine.
I will look for you. Is the Kog custard or black?

Cool! We're camping in Centralia...along with probably 6,000 other
people. :) And then staying overnight in Portland at a friend's house,
