The longest distance between two points

Posted on May 22, 2023 by Grubb

Post by Grubb.

Ella’s frustration mounted yesterday when, on our trek back to the AirBnb I elected, once again, to choose the path that zigzagged uphill instead of just using the stairs.

Today, descending from the upper reaches of Bergen, the switchback route was designed to meet my meandering needs.

    I always choose the ramp. Charlie has been very patient with me. He, on the other hand, seeks out stairs. If he sees a stairway a little off the path, he runs over and climbs it even though it is out of the way and he has to come back down.

      That’s funny! If there is a choice between walking over a bridge or going down a bunch of stairs and then across and up a bunch of stairs, that’s where you’ll find Grubb.
