Jim and others: Sorry I'm late getting back on this. No, we don't
have any more sandbags, and I wasn't planning on more gravel this year.
I was assuming we would work with the concrete sidewalk chunks that are
in the area to the right beyond the foot of the ramp. They are a
hazard where they are now anyway. An idea I wanted to try is to build
some steps by fitting smaller rocks into the big rocks to the right of
the ramp.
