In addition to the stairs and hill houses, Beth and I walked along a portion of the <a href=\"https:\/\/modernhiker.com\/hike\/hiking-the-corralitas-rail-path\/\">Corralitas Red Line Trail<\/a> but got stymied by construction blocking the route. Our hope is that the closure is temporary and only for hillside repair or \u2013 even better \u2013 park construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also got to see Judy Garland&#8217;s (Frances Gumm&#8217;s) 1933 &#8220;castle&#8221; home beside one of the stairways. Late breakfast at <a href=\"http:\/\/ivanhoela.com\/\">Ivanhoe Restaurant<\/a> fueled us for the last couple of stairways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\"
